The Lyrics

Bum finds lotto ticket. That's all I have to say, really.
Ah ah ah ah......
Ah ah ah ah......

I lived on the streets
Dirty old hobo
Found a dropped ticket
From the Oz Lotto

I curl up in my box
And wait for them to broadcast
The results for this thing
To see if I win, it's not likely

So I sleep with
My ticket near
I wonder if I'll be
A winner here

Ah ah ah ah......
Ah ah ah ah......

My mate wakes me up
Cause my watch "escaped"
Bought it off some guy
With what I had scraped

We stare at the TV
Through someone's open door
The numbers read six, twenty-four,
Three, five, four, eighty-four

I grind my teeth, the last is drawn
It's the one that I need
It's sixty-four!

I run towards the shop
So I can claim my winnings
The counter kid
Said "You again?
You've won the last seventeen!"

Well, yeah, hmmmm........(repeat)
SHOCKING TWIST!!1

So he's really a billionare who chooses to live like a hobo? Weird but who am I to judge I date mimes, burn witches, join Fight Clubs and have living teddy bears.

Yeah, but that's par for the course at Disney, Matty.

You're coming back...555 (Led Zep plays the lottery in the US, too...shamless self promo of http://www.amiright.com/parody/60s/ledzeppelin3.shtml)

Although you rhymed 4 with 4... Don't worry I've done the same thing before in the past, as I was working on my Frat Play video I found out that I made that mistake too. This was still pretty damn good Conq.

This has got to be the funniest parody of a Zeppelin song about the lottery that I've ever read. You get 555, from me. Hopefully those are the winning numbers. ;]

AGES...the ending made me giggle, Conq...good stuff!
Melanie Lee - February 10, 2009 - Report this comment
(Ages) Pretty good stuff! At first I thought you might be quoting the "Lost" lottery numbers, but you weren't. Anyway, made me smile. I'm wavering between the 4's and 5's so I'll give you a 5-4-5, because we can't do 4.5 here. (It's a contest, so I have to leave room at the top!)

Great idea and execution bobpie.
Funny...everytime I hear the OS I think of the line "Val hollared...I'm coming"

(Ages) I thought it was a good parody Conq, I only wish that it was a tad longer because it was pretty neat little story you had going, but hey--you can't control the song's length now can you, still waiting for me to win the lotto here (any lotto really--don't care which state)
Jeff Reuben - February 11, 2009 - Report this comment
(Ages) Funny song, funny ending :) I like your choice of OS as well.
Claude Prez - February 13, 2009 - Report this comment
This was even more fun to read with the handy YouTube link provided for the SOTM contest (even tho they removed that one and I had to go ALL THE WAY to the sidebar to click on another one). Anyway, yeah, still good.

You again? Fun twist, and especially liked the last stanza.

(ABC5O) The hobos need parodies too, and you did a great job. 555

(ABC5 O) Funny story and fits in well with the music

This was a lot 'o fun to read. I too was thinking like Melanie - figuring that it was Hurley's numbers from Lost. But the bum won. We have a lotto game here called "Cash Five" - Here's three of those cash five quick picks for ya.

(ABC5O) You've written a "winner" here!!
Matthias - September 01, 2009 - Report this comment
Still love the surprise ending... Although I don't understand why a trillionare would want to live this life as a hobo (Seeing that he won the last 17 he probably would be a trillionare...)
Melanie Lee - September 03, 2009 - Report this comment
(ABC) I didn't remember seeing this one before. Your numbers are still 5-4-5. Cute, good story, a little funny. BTW, I think people are missing the joke here--or I could be the one misreading it. The last number announced on TV is "eighty-four", and the guy says the last number drawn is "sixty-four". Now, the "joke" depends on whether this Lotto has six numbers or seven. (Do all Lottos have seven numbers? The one in NYS does.) Oh, well.

ABC5(O) Clever story with a twist at the end - went well with the OS!...555!!!
