Loose Losers On My Dashboard

Loose Losers
by James Jarvis

Loose losers on my dashboard
that I gotta throw away.
The lottery is callin' me,
Callin' me to play.

Yesterday, it was Fantasy,
Today I'll play it straight,
A Quick Pick in the lottery
Pick Three'll have to wait.

I want to win the lottery,
I'm lousy at the track,
I want to win the lottery
and get my money back.

I win, I'm leaving Lalaland,
I lose, I'm stayin' here,
A little win won't help me none,
Won't loose me of the queer.

I gotta win the lottery,
From here I must get free,
I'll win this wicked game of chance,
You wait and watch and see.
