In life we’re always wanting, hoping for things we’ve never had
A little love, a little money, the kind of things that make us glad
Some way out of a tight spot, or a bottomless black hole
Well, hold on, just a minute, wait right there, this must be told
If you feel you’ve lost your way, and all your cries have not been heard
Then call on me, ‘cos I’m the man…what do you do ? Say the word !

Now I don’t claim to be a holy man, I’m not a wizard or a king
I’m just the kind of guy that’s here to give you anything
I don’t want nothing in return, zero, zip, nada, nowt
I’ll just jump right out of my lamp and show you what I’m all about
A fancy car, a fancy house, this must be heard.
Just say it, don’t hold back now, I’m the man, just say the word !

Say the word, say the word
Say it louder, make it heard
Say it loud enough that even birds will hear it in the sky
Say the word, my friend, and kiss your problems…goodbye !

For one day I’ll be gone, and your wishes with me too
You’ll live just like your neighbour, no more gold and jewels – it’s true !
But make sure that when I leave that your eyesight isn’t blurred
Take a look at what you are now, all because you said the word !

Say the word, say the word
Say it louder, make it heard
Say the word, say the word
Say it louder, make it heard
Say it loud enough that even birds will hear it in the sky
Say the word, my friend, and kiss your problems…goodbye !
