I read my email today, oh boy.

How I'm a lucky man who made the grade
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh and
I read the Nigerian prince amassed a fortune

He got killed in a coup d'etat
He didn’t notice that the politics had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They’d seen his face before,
They need me to transfer funds into my bank account.

I read a message from a drug seller today oh, boy
They have the meds I need at deep savings
A crowd of people turned away
But I just had a look
Having read the book,
I’d love to turn you on...

Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up I noticed I was late.

Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream

Ah

I read my email today oh boy
I can have a Doctorate from MIT
And though the fees were rather small
They only need my money after all,
I can now get the monies I deserve...
I’d love to turn you on...


(Sorry, John)
