If Aunty Had Balls

If aunty had balls she'd be uncle as some used to say
A saying from my younger years in a land far away
That perhaps to some would not seem as appropriate or as politically correct today
At least to the more gentrified anyway
The word If often used to describe what might be
If the obstacle  that did get in the way of me
Of getting that job or of knowing of more personal success
If an excuse used by most for their failure to impress
That someone of importance or of an opportunity you failed for to take
For such the word we use when an excuse we do make
For what might have been but for us did not come true
Though perhaps in reality we receive from life what is our due
If aunty had balls she'd be uncle that may seem rather crude
But do pardon me if to you i sound rude.
