I Wish
Cher Lloyd feat T.I Lyrics

Baby, I seen the chick you're with Wish that I never did Uh freakin' perfect and five foot ten Just wanna punch her lip, yeah 'Cause I know I've been wasting time Trying to catch your eye, uh Yeah I know that I been so blind Thinking that I'm your type
The singer is regretful of knowing the person her love interest is already with as she is perfect for him. She feels like punching her rival because she wasted her time trying to get his attention, thinking he was interested in her.

And now I'm at home, I'm all alone 'Bout to pick up the telephone Got to call my genie so he knows, yeah
The singer is alone at home and planning to call her genie to make a wish because she feels she needs something extraordinary to win her love interest's heart.

I wish I was tall, I wish I was fast Wish I could shop with a bag full of cash 'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (Come, come kiss me boy)
The singer wishes for physical attributes like height and speed, and the ability to shop without worrying about money. She believes that having these things will make her more desirable to her love interest, and will help win his heart.

I wish I had style, I wish I had flash Wish I woke up with a butt and a rack 'Cause if I want you, I gotta have that (Come, come kiss me boy)
The singer wishes for style and a flashy persona, and for a more curvaceous figure. She believes that these changes will make her more attractive to her love interest, and will help win his heart.

Baby, I'm gonna keep it real Boy you're the one I want Uh, I don't own any five inch heels Just got my Nikes on Yeah, never thought I was insecure Boy look at what you done (what you done) I don't know what I studied for Clearly I like 'em dumb
The singer admits to liking her love interest, and tells him the truth about herself. She is not someone who wears high heels, prefering comfortable Nikes. After years of thinking that she was confident and self-assured, she now realizes the influence of the love interest on her self-esteem. She admits she's made questionable choices on men before, and that she likes people with a lower intelligence.

And now I'm at home I'm all alone 'Bout to pick up the telephone Got to call my genie so he knows, (so he knows)
The singer is alone at home and planning to call her genie again to make another wish, feeling that she needs all the help she can get to win her love interest's heart.

Hey, now don't you wanna do some, baby With the roof gone, baby Aston Martin look retarded like the coup gone crazy I'm not sure what kinda fella you like But I can give you paradise, have it however you like I'm talking solitaire iced out, ring, watch, necklace Ain't no talking reckless, girl, I'm certified respected, girl Yeah, you like to run your mouth, well you're about to learn a lesson, girl Yeah, you the one but I'll replace you in a second, girl And I ain't even trying to see you naked, girl Wait, there I go exaggerate Clearly carried away, but what I'm saying you could true that I wanna be wherever you at So you wishing you could kiss me Do you really wanna do that, eh? Make a wish, girl
In the third verse, the love interest speaks up about himself, promising to give the singer everything her heart desires even if he's not sure what type of guy she likes. He tells her he's wealthy and will shower her in jewelry. He also threatens to replace her if she doesn't obey him, although he's not trying to be physically intimate with her. He asks if she truly wants him to be her man and wishes her to make a wish.
