Addiction To Greed
Slots machines are my favorite thing to do
I love to watch the wheels go round and round
And also when it rings and lights up with sounds
Bonus round..... Yesssssssss I'm in
I get five
Hopefully lucky spins
The first spin goes and I hit 10 bucks
Yessssssss...I yell
2nd spin comes and goes
3rd spin comes and goes
4th spin comes and .....
Yessssssssssssss 50 bucks
Wooo Hoo I shout
And everyone comes running over
They all thought I hit A big one you see
The the 5th spin comes and there is nothing for me
So I keep pulling that lever of joy
The winning seems to fade away
Just like the paycheck I got today
500 hundred dollars later
Thinking I was going to win big
I should have went home
While I was ahead
How do I explain to my wife and kids
What I just did
I can win it back
I keep saying to myself
All I know
Right now I am in hell
Pull after pull I spend the rest of the night
I know when I get home
Me and My wife
Are going to have a fight
