Better Lyrics:
And you may ask yourself
Lump sum or Cash Option?
And you may ask yourself
My same numbers or Quick Pick?
And you may tell yourself
Those aren't the numbers I picked!
And you may tell yourself
Those should have been the numbers I picked!
Letting the bills go by/let me win the lottery
Letting the bills go by/please pick ball 43.
Into the red again/before the money's gone
Once in the Lotto/money going underground
Insane as I ever was
Broke as I ever was.
Lump sum or Cash Option?
And you may ask yourself
My same numbers or Quick Pick?
And you may tell yourself
Those aren't the numbers I picked!
And you may tell yourself
Those should have been the numbers I picked!
Letting the bills go by/let me win the lottery
Letting the bills go by/please pick ball 43.
Into the red again/before the money's gone
Once in the Lotto/money going underground
Insane as I ever was
Broke as I ever was.
Original Lyrics:
And you may ask yourself
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was.
How do I work this?
And you may ask yourself
Where is that large automobile?
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful house!
And you may tell yourself
This is not my beautiful wife!
Letting the days go by/let the water hold me down
Letting the days go by/water flowing underground
Into the blue again/after the money's gone
Once in a lifetime/water flowing underground.
Same as it ever was
Same as it ever was.
