Loverly!

(With all due apologies to Eliza Dolittle)

 

 

All I want is designer wear

Waterford vases and Chippendale chairs

A Cartier on my wrist and diamonds in my hair

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly!

 

Godiva chocolates for me to eat

A Vertu cellphone for me to speak

A Fendi mesh bag and Blahnik on my feet

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly!

 

A husband as handsome as Richard Gere

Whose credit cards I can melt

While shopping everywhere

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly!

 

 

~ Mayuri Sharma ~

 

 

 

All I want is a pet  tortoise

It makes no sound, it  makes no  noise

It's cute  and round , it's not  skinny

Oh wouldn't  it be loverly ?

 

Lots of green grass for it to eat

Lots of cleaning  to make it neat

It crawls  and not at all  frisky

Oh wouldn't  it be loverly ?

 

I'll bring my tortoise to  somewhere

Far away from the cold night air

we can  go for a shopping spree

Oh wouldn't  it be loverly ?

All I want is to travel near and far,

Whichever way… plane, ship or car,

The world around me I want to see,

Oh, wouldn't it be loverly.

 

To leave the snow and cold behind

Would be one thing I wouldn't mind,

I’d follow the sun and see where it’d lead,

Oh, wouldn't it be loverly!

 

I’d meet my friends from far away,

Seek new adventures every day,

I'm a dreamer, can you see? But…

Wouldn't it be lovely!

All I want is the lotto to win

Then I could lead a life

Of debauchery, and sin

Oh wouldn't it be loverly

 

I would cruise the world

on a giant ship

Buying drinks for  the girls

And giving tips

Oh wouldn't it be loverly

 

Watch the sun rise on a tropic isle

Hire a limosine and see the sights

Eat  expensive meals

Do everything in style

Oh wouldn't it be loverly

 ~Tango~

 

All I want is to look like Cindy (Crawford not Lauper)

With legs from here to Paris

An allowance that makes Gates look like a pauper

And a flat tummy without any stitches

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly!

 

All I want is that I be dined and wined

What does it matter if I (hic) don’t drink?

In London tonight and Sydney tomorrow

Go wild and raise a stink

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly!

 

All I want really is the good sense to know

Debauchery from fun

To hold in my heart the ones I love

And to be loved in return

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly!

 

St. Swati

All I want is a single wish,

With that I’ll wish for three more.

I’ll just go on like this,

Until I get an entire score.

Oh Wouldn’t that be loverly!!!

 

All I want is a single wish,

So I get whatever comes to my mind.

And if my wishes start exhausting,

The next batch won’t be far behind.

Oh Wouldn’t that be loverly!!!

 

All I want is a single wish,

One wish that only God can grant,

But once I have that single wish

I’ll do whatever I want.

Oh Wouldn’t that be loverly!!!

  Vidur S

All I want is to see the world

The world as it rises and sets

In the turquoise of your depths

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly

 

To play lost and found

As we sit besides one another

Lost to the world, but found in each other

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly

 

To read volumes of silence

And browse oceans of feelings

Paint canvases of intensity

Oh wouldn’t that be loverly

 

All I want is to stop the clock

So that precious moment becomes

Our past, present and future

Oh wouldn’t that be so loverly

 

Above all I want to feel like

Just for once, your woman

And know you to be my man

Now wouldn’t that simply be just loverly
