Ode to Warren Buffett
The odds were long
The brackets were tough
But I thought I knew
A lot about the stuff
What would I do
With all that money
A billion buys
Lots of milk and honey
So I'd buy
A fancy Land Rover
And take a trip
To the cliffs of Dover
Then I'd buy a house
With lots of land
Some where on the beach
Surrounded by sand
I'd buy my girls
Lots of bling
And for my wife
A 20 carat diamond ring
Maybe buy myself
A baseball team
I'd bat lead off
Livin' the dream
Yes a billion
Goes a long way
I could spend a million
Just about every day
But here's the thing
You got to play to win
So I made my picks
And gave it a spin
Then they played
I picked Duke
When I saw the score
I wanted to puke
Good bye house
And fancy cars
And living life
Like those Hollywood stars
But I'm still happy
Cause like Ben Franklin said
I'm still here
I ain't dead
So thanks Mr. B
You can keep your cash
Keep on keepin' large
Counting your stash
Nobody won
That's no shock
You had it all along
It was a lock
The odds it seems
Were trillions to one
But what the heck
It was still lots of fun!
