With seven hands, I’d rule the land
Like a Hindu god, I’d have it all
I’d wrap two arms around your neck
And change the world with the rest
I’d write more songs, I’d keep you safe
I’d have five babies and they’d be great
I’d probably have a PHD, in international history
With 7 hands, Oh 7 hands
But for more I wouldn’t push
Cause with 8 (clap, clap, clap, clap) I’d be an octopus
With 7 hands, we’d have more fans
And we’d have loads of time to play
I’d still be young, with skin like silk
And men would look at me and sway
I’d change the way we teach our kids
I’d cook a lot of homemade cakes
And all the magic that I feel, I finally could use for real
With 7 hands, Oh 7 hands
But for more I wouldn’t push
Cause with 8 (clap, clap, clap, clap) I’d be an octopus
With 7 hands, I’d make more plans
And I’d be irresistible
I’d write, and sing and travel more
Well, I’d be indestructible
I’d never loose my centered peace
I’d be just like an old oak tree
I wouldn’t suffer from self doubt, cause I’d be super powerful
With 7 hands, Oh 7 hands
But for more I wouldn’t push
Cause with 8 (clap, clap, clap, clap) I’d be an octopus
