Lyrics

Silly Kids Games

I just want my fortune now

I don't care where or when or how

I don't want the dustbIn or a cuddly toy

I'm going for the jackpot

Boy oh boy oh boy

Chorus :

See me on the box

See me winning lots of loot oh yeah

Silly kids games grabbing cash

Off that old coot oh yeah

Now I've got the replies to all the questions

There's just on thing that I should mention

When I win all the loot don't you have no fear

I'm gonna take my hols in Kampuchea,yeah

(repeat chorus)

And it's been a pleasure

Thanks a million

I hope you liked the show

La la la la la la la

La la la la la la laaaaa laaaaa
