What Kid's Wanted

If kids knew what they wanted to be as a preteen Then now many would have already become a king or a queen, And if they knew what they wanted to be at that age Maybe now they would had been a fire breathing dragon in a cage. If they knew what they wanted to be at eight Then they would had already chosen their teddy as their mate, And if they knew what they wanted to be at nine Maybe they would now be a panda bear in a sacred shrine. Maybe they would had been a cowgirl or a cowboy Or maybe even a character from their favorite bedtime story, Who knows maybe they would had wanted to be race-cars Or even aliens from the planet Mars. Maybe if they had become the desires that they had sought Maybe then they would had grown up into a giant robot, Or maybe they would grow into a crazy and/or a mad scientist Maybe that would had been on their childhood checklist. Maybe they wanted to fly, run fast and become a super hero Or maybe they wanted to be a giant or a dream that weighs zero, Thank God that no one took any of those children seriously And none were scheduled for an eye removal and peg leg surgery.
