IF A MAN CAME UP TO YOU

And he said, "Give me a dollar!"
For that dollar I well give you a chance
To win millions of dollars
Knwing the odds of you winning minute
But you trust this man
But the laws says this is a scam
And the man would go to prison
The government says it's a lottery
When they do the same scam
Another man says, "Give me your social security check."
I well give you points
Let you plays some games of chance
That are fixed so you never really
If you get enough points you have points for food
On special occasions I well give you
A dollar store purchase plastic spatula
The government gives footstamps to illegals
Now the law would say this is robbery
But Grandma does it weekly on a bus
It's called going to the Casino
and taking from the rich to help the poor
Next week I well explain the benefits
Of making drugs legal
How the taxes well help our children
Have money to pay for their drug habit
I think someone in high places benefits
And I think these people are criminals
Just a personal opinion mind you
