Roger Waters - Three Wishes Lyrics
Reached back for the bottle
And rubbed against the lamp
Genie came out smiling
Like some Eastern tramp
He said hey boy what's happening
You can have three wishes
If you don't take too long
I said well
I wish they all were happy on the Lebanon
Wish somebody'd help me write this song
I wish when I was young
My old man had not been gone
Genie said consider it done
There's something in the air
And you don't know what it is
Who you've just learned to miss
And the road leads on to glory but
You've used up your last wish
Your last wish
And you want her to come home
Genie said I'm sorry
But that's the way it goes
Where the hell's lamp sucker
It's time for me to go
Bye
There's something in the air
And you don't know what it is
You see someone through a window
Who you've just learned to miss
And the road leads on to glory but
You've used up your last wish
Your last wish
And you want her to come home

Roger Waters Three Wishes Comments
Peter Boyle
Roger Waters N° 1
Shes a man baby
Я откpыл бутылку,
Потеp стекло pукой.
Улыбаясь взвился
Джинни надо мной.
Спpосил: "Эй, дpуг, что случилось ?
Что у вас за вздоp ?
Исполню тpи желанья,
Если ты будешь скоp.
Если ты будешь скоp."
Я сказал
"Хочу, чтобы в Ливане войне пришел конец,
Чтоб мне помогли закончить стих,
Хочу, чтоб в моем детстве
С войны пpишел отец."
Джин сказал: "ОК! Я исполнил их!"
Что-то в воздухе мелькнуло.
Ты не знаешь, кто там был.
Вдpуг увидел сквозь окошко
Ту, что совсем забыл.
И казалось, все пpекpасно, но
Желаний только тpи.
Только тpи.
А ты ждал ее в свой дом... дом...
В ваш с ней дом.
Джин сказал: "Всегда вот,
Бывает так, пpости !
Уже ничего не испpавить,
Ведь мне поpа идти.
Пpощай !"
Что-то в воздухе мелькнуло.
Ты не знаешь, кто там был.
Вдpуг увидел сквозь окошко
Ту, что совсем забыл.
И казалось, все пpекpасно, но
Желаний только тpи.
Только тpи.
А ты ждал ее в свой дом... дом...
Reached back for the bottle

He said "Hey boy what's happening
What is going on
You can have three wishes
If you don't take too long

I said
"Well, I wish they all were happy in the Lebanon
Wish somebody'd help me write this song

Genie said "Consider it done!"
There's something in the air
And you don't know what it is
You see someone through the window
Who you've just learned to miss
And the road leads on to glory
But you used up your last wish
Your last wish
And you want her to come home... home
Bring her home...
Genie said "I'm sorry
That's the way it goes
Where the hell l'lamp, suckah
It's time for me to go!
Byehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!"
There's something in the air

Best album ever
Hella bootsy.
Why am I only now, after all these Decades of listening to this song, just now seeing that Peter Boyle plays the genie!!!
to think in 1990 this album never sold enough copies to have a tour...... i heard this album 92 i canny get me head around it............... id have went id be 15 at the time but id have went even if it was the barras.
one of my fav songs from roger its a gem the whole album is .sir
Be careful what you wish for :)
💎Perfect!!💎
Roger thanks for the songs on the nuclear meltdowns but nobody heard when they finally started happening .
Roger you are so great!
What's with the Thumbs Down
Roger Waters: an incredible walk of life !
Yup thats my whole life right there ...
Love Roger ❤️💕❤️❣️❤️💕
Il jazz, i deep purple, Barry white donna summer la soul Music, mancano solo i Pink Floyd.
Roger you are my favourite artist, musician, rock poet by far. I also find you dead sexy, you could be my grandpa but still... You are gorgeous! 😍❤️👏
Absolutely right! He's the most talented, sexy, genius musician and a real Poet! Love him so much! 💕💕💕
wishing i was Priscilla just to have the opportunity to kiss him. god Roger’s so goddamn good looking. its not even funny.
Priscilla was his perfect match! Too bad they're no longer together. Love Rog! ✌️❤️🇬🇧
Jeff Becks guitar is like a smooth bottle of wine
Waters è una fucina musicale e ancora carico di idee....Grande!
Il faut être près psychologiquement pour écouter un son aussi puissant.
Alors l'album entier... je vous explique pas.
The best album you were ever involved with in my opinion Roger , its a true masterpiece !
What a song , careful what you wish for ...
Странно музыка рисует другие пейзажи.......
I am pretty sure that the girl is Priscilla Phillips, Roger's third wife
so am i... beautiful woman
@michela derry She is. Do you get the impression that Roger makes a bit of a fool of himself with women. He was married for a fourth time 2012-2015 and that ended pretty acrimoniously
@Martin Brown i dont think so. If we think about how many marriages some actresses or actors have in their lifetime!!!
does anybody here for jeff beck?
You are not alone mate. I love his music
Did anyone else notice that the genie swiped the ashtray from the table?
this is too spooky I put my first poem on you tube and its the same name as one of rogers song so I thought of the next poem I would put up and its the same name as this song ..what is going on .
Someone will write what is this video and text about?
DUDE!! You don't need a wish mate! Just walk outside and talk it through with her

Where the hell's the lamp sucker?
It's time for me to go

This Guy is a Genius, one of the best lyricist of all time

Damn the Genie gives the Sub a good workout

The intro for this song on the album version has some poignant words spoken softly by a woman-adding that extra emotional dimension that Roger is sooooo good at. Really love the coda too

Thanks Roger.
Peter Boyle please stop giving wishes. I keep thinking I am owed and I am still deep in the woods?
The genie speak is strange. Sounds sounds like backwards speak. “It time for me to “gove”
Wife Priscilla Philips?
Yes she is!
Isto é um músico uma lenda para o mundo do rock.
What a ending....beautiful
This is 1 of Waters x wives
FINNALY I FOUND IT !!!!!!!!
De lo mejor de su carrera solista
This song is Magic .... Thanks master !!!!
"Roger Waters"..... and.....
Hey... She didn't pay!
Roger Water's best solo album !
Genius.....Thanks
Why this the only song from amused to death to have roger water song like in the album pro and con and final cut and the wall?
kral be
mi ricorda RICHARD GERE!!!!
What's is the statement about "Lebanon?"
"i wish they were happy in the Lebanon" the Lebanon was fucked up back then
Aquí estoy yo Roger !
I imagine the Genie being more like a black, smoky Cheshire Cat sort of character. Slightly humanoid, but more of a wisp
I must have missed the part where she paid for the gas.
Why people always related him to Gilmour and other Pink Floyd members. He's not with them anymore since long time and he does his own wonderful stuffs. Like David does too. We are lucky to have both side of the moon!
