I wish I could live Like a knife would live If a knife had some sort of circulatory, digestive and respiratory systems.

I wish I could speak Like a knife would speak If a knife had anything at all to say, which it doesn't.

I wish I could hear Like a knife would hear If a knife had those little thingies we have inside our ears.

I wish I could walk Like a knife would walk If a knife had any of the millions of potential walking appendages.

I wish I could yell Like a knife would yell If a knife had vocal cords, a mouth and other yelling stuff.

I wish I could smile Like a knife would smile If a knife had teeth or something that could conceivably look like them.

I wish I could cry Like a knife would cry If a knife somehow had the ability to produce tears.

I wish I could think Like a knife would think If it could.
