We Are So Lucky

Lucky Elf Brothers were sitting in the shade
Discussing the way fortune had smiled upon them.
We are healthy and happy, and pretty well paid.
Said the youngest one. His name was Diamond Jim.

We were born with silver spoons like leprechauns said the other.
I am thrilled that we belong together, that you are my big brother.
They spent the day discussing the fact they never grew old.
Neither noticed when a sneaky leprechaun walked off with their gold.
