If it won't work now
It won't work later (x4)
I don't think I'll like you
Ten years from now
If you're not by my side
To keep an eye on you
You have the winning ticket
But you put your gum in it
You had me
I'm such a steal
You sold me off
Didn't close the deal
If it won't work now
It won't work later (x4)
I don't want you around
When I'm back in town
First come first served
Take my word
You won't be missed
You have the winning ticket
But you put your gum in it
You had me
I'm such a steal
So, we ought to close the deal
When you see me on the street
Don't you run and say hi
When you land on your feet
Don't come walk all over me
No, no, no
You have the winning ticket
But you put your gum in it
You had me
I'm such a steal
Sold me off
Didn't close the deal
If it won't work now
It won't work later (x8)
