If I were a wise old fool
Or a duck out of luck
Would I count my money
by thimble or by a dumping truck
I'm glad I have no such problems
I broke the rules and bank
I own a four cornered mansion
On every street with steeply sloping banks
I have no problems eating
I mark every foodline on a map
I own stock in Salvation Army
I bought off this persuasive chap
I worry not for tomorrow
Today is good enough for me
I've been told I have no future
So say the fortune tellers that is all they see
Oh well , oh whale , oh wail
It doesn't matter me
Time now for a free lunch
Then in your alley I will surely go to ***
