i once was a wretch

I once was a fisherman without any fish
I once was a genie without a wish
I once was a builder without any bricks
I once was a magician without any tricks

I once was a cleaner without a broom
I once was a singer without any tune
I once was a painter without any paint
I once was a church without a saint

I once was a desert without any sand
I once was a planet without any land
I once was an undertaker without a hearse
I once was a hospital without a nurse

Now I am a wretch and I'm happy as can be
I don't need no nothing to satisfy me
