The other day a friend of mine looked me straight in the eye And said he was going to devote the rest of his life to making a billion bucks So I wrote this poem especially for him in hopes he'll change his mind You got it all figured out eh Jack a billion bucks you're gonna make right And then you say you're gonna give it all away and then what After you've got the big house the big car The swimming pool the motorcycles the boats after the airplanes After all these things then what Jack You got it all figured out you say you're gonna give it all away And move to the woods and live simply like other normal human beings And all you want from there on out is just enough to get by on Well take a tip from all the great minds that ever thought and wrote it down Jack Skip the billion dollar bill Son and do the woods thing Don't waste your time Jack do the woods thing now Please Jack please Jack please
