It’s turned a few minutes past four
When there’s a knock downstairs at the door
They bust through and barge their way up the stairs
But calm down once they find you’re not there
Your wife’s not pleased they’ve had to move again
But for their child, she continues to pretend
You’ve managed to give them the slip
How long do you’ll think it’ll be, before you trip?

Hoping you’ll be the one who’s lucky spending
Money on scratch cards and lottery tickets
After reading quick tips and strategies
To make you rich from a book for dummies

‘Don’t mistake temptation for opportunity’
Is what you read from tearing a fortune cookie
It makes you think is that phrase meant to be fate
When all you do is spend but can only repay
Family with a straight face so they don’t disown
You for not returning back what you borrowed
You’ve managed to give them the slip
How long do you’ll think it’ll be, before you trip?

Hoping you’ll be the one who’s lucky spending
Money on scratch cards and lottery tickets
After reading quick tips and strategies
To make you rich from a book for dummies

As your hopes and dreams lay in a casino
Somewhere in Las Vegas to play slot machines
And roulette, think about your wife and child
Before it turns too lethal and deadly

Hoping you’ll be the one who’s lucky spending
Money on scratch cards and lottery tickets
After reading quick tips and strategies
To make you rich from a book for dummies
