Lotto Loser - by The Vestibular Bard I don’t expect a prize for naught, Much Lotto ticket I have bought, And whilst those ping pong balls do bounce, I pray to gods with every ounce, Of humble begging that I own, To every god I’ve ever known. I’ve prayed to Allah, Ra and Zeus, That Hubbard guy, and Dr. Seuss… I’ve prayed to Jesus, Mary too, The gods of every ancient Jew, I’ve prayed in fields while caked in mud, I prayed so hard I sweated blood… But when those ping pong balls stop bouncing My Lotto picks, they’re not announcing, So I’ll keep trying different gods, ‘Till I find one that beats the odds. |

Yanno... it's not nice to make me guffaw when I'm trying hard to make people think I'm working. LOL |
