油翁練詩
夾藕筷穿蓮孔過，傾啤弧落半空來。
An Ode to Winning Mark Six
(Verse 1)
What a beautiful morning, a ticket in my hand,
Scratched off the numbers, oh, ain’t life grand?
Mark Six lottery, four hundred mil to me,
I jumped and I shouted, “Honey, we’re free!”
(Chorus)
Adding eight acres to our humble abode,
My wife looks nine springs younger as she showed.
But the roof’s still leaking,
drips on my cheek to remind me of a dream.
I’d rather turn over and fall back asleep.
(Verse 2)
We bought a big mansion, a yacht, and a plane,
Took trips to the tropics, danced in the rain.
But the roof kept leaking, like a sad refrain,
Money got in the dream can’t fix it,
but who’s to complain?
(Chorus)
Adding eight acres to our humble abode,
My wife looks nine springs younger as she showed.
But the roof’s still leaking,
drips on my cheek to remind me of a dream.
I’d rather turn over and fall back asleep.
(Bridge)
Thousands of bundles, cash everywhere,
Bought diamond collars for our pet bear.
But when the drip drops, I start to swear,
Is this a dream? Do I even care?
(Chorus)
Adding eight acres to our humble abode,
My wife looks nine springs younger as she showed.
But the roof’s still leaking,
drips on my cheek to remind me of a dream.
I’d rather turn over and fall back asleep.
(Outro)
So here’s to Mark Six and dreams that come true,
With millions to spend, there’s always more to do.
But I’ll keep dreaming, that’s what I choose,
‘Cause waking up means dealing with that roof blues.
油翁原詩：六合彩
忽中六合彩，喜得四億元。
屋增八頃地，妻少九春顏。
屋漏滴頰醒，翻身人複眠。
尚餘鈔萬捆，續夢去花完。
問好棗泥博友！
