When Losers Win

It irks me to no end Bothers me like an itch you can’t scratch, seeing losers win And it just happened again Uncouth bad manners chortling, with a dummy balloon grin Loser ... always will be, always was back when What did the loser win? The lottery, apparently Rigged the system with improper tampering Loser and a cheat That just doubled my disgust, doubled my beef Losers don’t get lucky like that, had to be an inside job Should anything go wrong, those invisible hands you won’t see The only public face will be the Loser, packaged to be the pasty It’s bad for the merit business, seeing losers win And it just happened again Uncouth bad manners chortling, with an idiotic joker grin Another loser ... now they’re both slapping hands, like they’ve always been best friends Looks like losers winning has turned into a trend Much to my chagrin
