lyrics

I heard you won the lottery
I heard it from an acquaintance by family
And when I heard your name
I remembered all the fun we had back then
And so I had to look you up
I found your number in an old book
But when I had the phone in hand
I realized the flaw in my plan

Now what can I do now
With all this new wealth that you've found
Everything feels so contrived
When there's money on the line

I know it wouldn't go to your head
You're not the kind of person those figures could ever turn bad
I worry about how I may seem
I'm sure you've seen some people around you turning green
I'm not trying to get in
I just wonder how you've been
But would you listen to me
After all, you won the lottery

Now what can I do now
With all this new wealth that you've found
Everything feels so contrived
When there's money on the line
I just want to have a talk
Or maybe go for a walk
I know everything has changed
And my timing, must be strange

I'm doing alright by myself
Though I can't deny I could use some help
But all I want from you
Let's have some fun, just like we used to
