WORDS WITHOUT A SONG
When you wish upon a star
bear in mind the colour bar.
Anything your heart desires may bypass you.
Though your heart is in your dream
some requests are too extreme
when you wish upon a star
as dreamers do.
Fate is cruel
she brings to those who love
restrictions to their secret longing
like a bolt out of the blue
fate steps in to hinder you
when you wish upon a star
your dreams may not come true.
When you wish upon a star
if you're black you won't go far.
Anything your heart desires may bypass you.
Though your heart is in your dream
some requests are too extreme
when you wish upon a star
as dreamers do.
Fate is cruel
she brings to those who love
restrictions to their secret longing.
Like a bolt out of the blue
fate steps in to hinder you
when you wish upon a star
your dreams may not come true.

Graham, Tom Brian and Stephen, much appreciated.
Thank you Ghazala. I have to own up to you that this a deviation of the Walt Disney song When you wish upon a star. So I have altered some words to denote irony, and mostly the lyrics are not my own. If only!! It is a beautiful song in its own right....
