I Won, I Won, I What?

To all my friends here on the soup, I just won the state lottery and here’s the scoop. With all the millions that I won today, They said I could pay all the taxes in various ways. It seems somehow the money I won, Wasn’t quite enough when they were done. I can make monthly payments on what I owe. How come if I won I don’t get no dough? He said it’s like this, the man was slick. Try not to win, now that’s the trick. If you had all that money you’d be just like us. We’re just trying to help you so what’s the fuss. Well now I guess I’m really confused, this is the only game you win to lose. But wasn’t it fun the numbers you pick they let you choose. P.S. I really didn’t win. I just made this up I fibbed again. Shame on me, but what the hey. It’s something to read any old way.
