I often wish I were a King, <br />And then I could do anything. <br /> <br />If only I were King of Spain, <br />I'd take my hat off in the rain. <br /> <br />If only I were King of France, <br />I wouldn't brush my hair for aunts. <br /> <br />I think, if I were King of Greece, <br />I'd push things off the mantelpiece. <br /> <br />If I were King of Norroway, <br />I'd ask an elephant to stay. <br /> <br />If I were King of Babylon, <br />I'd leave my button gloves undone. <br /> <br />If I were King of Timbuctoo, <br />I'd think of lovely things to do. <br /> <br />If I were King of anything, <br />I'd tell the soldiers, "I'm the King!"<br /><br />Alan Alexander Milne<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/if-i-were-king/
