Architect

I wish I was an architect
So I could build a picket fence
Around the budding rosebush in the yard

If I was an optometrist
Then I could see what I have missed
'Cause changing tinted lenses is too hard

If I was a veterinarian
I could be like chameleons
And blend into the walls and be free

And if I was a pharmacist
I'd understand why chemists mix
The potions that they use to fix me

If I was an attorney
I could try to sway the jury
So they listen to my cries and let me go

If I was keeper of the bees
I'd have sweetness when I'd please
I'd watch the honey trickle nice and slow

If I was a dermatologist
I could seal up all the crevices
And wipe each blinding blemish from my skin

And if I served in a church
I could mend what's raw and bleeds and burns
Each mark a different sign of my sin

But all that I know how to be
Is ignorant and selfish me
I wish that I could change my foolish ways
'Cause maybe if I was someone else
Then I could learn to love myself
Instead of trying different shoes everyday
