I could already be
A millionaire.
Somebody’s gotta win.
Had a funny feelin’
My ticket was a winner
When the Pakistani clerk
Said “Good luck!” and with a jerk
Slapped the change into my palm,
The change
Into my palm,
Where I have yet to find
My luck line,
Where lines are so faint and fractured
Even gypsies cannot tell.
What the hell,
Somebody’s gotta win.
I could already be
A millionaire.
Feel it in my bones.
Gonna check my lucky numbers,
Check ‘em real careful.
