The Lyrics
Everyone dreams about winning the Mega Millions lottery...some have really BIG dreams. Original Song
I felt lucky yesterday
Got some milk and some scratch-off’s
Got back home and grabbed a nickel
Lost my breath, ‘cause I’m in shock!
If I get three of the same numbers
I’ll win more than I should have
I might just cry, could have ten million!
Scratch around, I might just win!
The first number was a seven,
A seven again
Oh! Another! I win!
All this money I’ll spend!
Buy a house for my mother
New car for my brother
And pay all my debt!
Man, I don’t want this to end
All this money, spent
Buy a movie screen and nice seats
Bowling alley in my home
No matter the price, don’t tempt me
Won’t even think, I’ll spend a lot
A Maserati and an island
Debauchery, sin
Oh, my life is a win!
All this money I’ll spend
I’ll buy Facebook, then for sure
Added to Mount Rushmore
Right next to Lincoln!
Oh man, this never will end
All this money, spent
Lebron asked me to spot him some dough,
It’s the third time since winning
Own small countries, named after me
Oh, man I’m complete, my life’s a win!
Strut back down to the gas station
“Hey, where’s my millions!?”
But the cashier just laughed
“Sir, you’ve only won ten...
You prob’ly should have finished
And then you would witness
Cash you didn’t win.
So meet Alex Hamilton!
The guy who won the millions,
Your ex’s new boyfriend!”
Fine, then just give me my ten
Don’t know how I will spend
Guess I’ll buy this here Snickers
And this pack of Twizzlers
And that lotto ticket!
Guess this is how it will end
All my winnings spent
Got some milk and some scratch-off’s
Got back home and grabbed a nickel
Lost my breath, ‘cause I’m in shock!
If I get three of the same numbers
I’ll win more than I should have
I might just cry, could have ten million!
Scratch around, I might just win!
The first number was a seven,
A seven again
Oh! Another! I win!
All this money I’ll spend!
Buy a house for my mother
New car for my brother
And pay all my debt!
Man, I don’t want this to end
All this money, spent
Buy a movie screen and nice seats
Bowling alley in my home
No matter the price, don’t tempt me
Won’t even think, I’ll spend a lot
A Maserati and an island
Debauchery, sin
Oh, my life is a win!
All this money I’ll spend
I’ll buy Facebook, then for sure
Added to Mount Rushmore
Right next to Lincoln!
Oh man, this never will end
All this money, spent
Lebron asked me to spot him some dough,
It’s the third time since winning
Own small countries, named after me
Oh, man I’m complete, my life’s a win!

And that lotto ticket!
Guess this is how it will end
All my winnings spent

A fine story...just enough imaginative luxuries to make it funny, and a nice twist ending,
(Artistry) A pitiful lotto pay-out results in a fantastic parody pay-off, who knew? Pretty cool parody here, 555!
Very funny story with a very funny twist at the end. I think the final stanza was my favorite, where you spend all your winnings.A buddy of mine refers to the lotto as the 'fools tax'. Well done Abbott.
Funny song with a nice twist at the end. Nice job!
At least you won something better than how I usually do. This was a pretty fun story with an unexpected result.
Key reason why there's a so-called "Lotto Curse", that or they get robbed.
(Artistry) Silliness! Pure and utter silliness, but so much fun!
