Thinking back on the whole poem, which type of conditional does the author use to describe this imaginary situation?

Explanation

The author says, "If we were a rock 'n' roll band. We'd travel all over the land. We'd play and we'd sing and wear spangly things, if we were a rock 'n' roll band."

The author says, "If we were a rock 'n' roll band, and we were up there on the stand, the people would hear us and love us and cheer us 'Hurray for that rock 'n' roll band.'" He does not mention that people would sing for them.

The author says, 'If we were a rock 'n' roll band, then we'd have a million fans.' The word 'then' in this sentence signifies the result clause.

The author says, "We'd be millionaires and have extra long hair."

The author says that they aren't a rock n roll band, and that instead of standard instruments they have instruments made of regular household items. He says, "We're just seven kids in the sand, With homemade guitars and pails and jars And drums of potato chip cans."

This poem makes use of the second conditional to describe an imaginary situation. If the author and his friends were a rock n roll band (an imaginary condition), the things described in the poem would be the result (ex: they would travel, they would have extra long hair, etc).
