Cool Millions

So you won a cool five million Friends and family come out of the woodwork, even from the pavilion You claim your life won't change You distant yourself, become estranged Fifty dollar tips for a ten dollar meal You get a flat tire, so you buy a new set of wheels You go from a two bedroom home To an eighteen bedroom party zone The honeys that used to spit on you Now they treat you like a Guru Sylvia said you couldn't buy her love Now in your arms, you have your Snow White Dove The purity from her was never there She threatens to leave, you no longer care Cocaine and speed are always on your menu Parents of a minor female threaten to sue You settle out of court, all your money you have blown Now you are the Jester, no longer the King of your throne So now it's back to skid row You are back to living under the bridge as a troll
