He was right.
It was me, he was describing.
Watching T.V., bills piled up.
Living paycheck to paycheck.
How did he know?
I wasn't lazy.
Just needed guidance, motivation,
someone to show me.
How to make a million
without leaving my house.
How did he know?
I was ready,
to have operators standing by.
Four easy payments
All major credit cards accepted.
Thirty days to examine, in my home.
If not completely satisfied,
money back,
minus shipping and handing.
Would be the last straw,
to break this camel's back !
How did he know?
My wife would be asleep
and couldn't stop me this time.
How did he know?
