Good things happen to bad people:
A man on day leave from prison
In England
Bought a lottery ticket
and three days later
Read his favorite numbers out loud
From a newspaper in hand;
He had just won millions of pounds.

Good things happen to bad people:
In 1994 a famous ex-american footballer
and b-grade actor
Went on trial for the murder of his
Wife and her lover.
In an obvious display of guilt
He fled the police by car
With a gun in his hand
Warning of his intention
To end his life
There and then behind the wheel.
His trial lasted a year
There were no other suspects;
The man was freed.

Good things happen to bad people:
George W Bush is still
running America as President.
