it is probably foolish to pin one's hopes to winning the lottery,
but I am adding gambling to my list of vices.

i'll never be lucky,
but i'd like to hope that i could be.

i'll never have great love,
but i love to fantasize that i could.

i don't have a calling,
but oh! how i wish i did!

i'll never leave this dump of a town,
but the globe in my kitchen
will keep spinning.
