Shine the Light Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I dream of Euromillions, I dreamed I scooped the lot
I'd have two words for my boss and the second one is off
But I've had fifty lucky dips, so Arthur, Guinevere
Which one of you will help to stamp my passport out of here?
[Chorus]
Shine!
Shine the light of luck on me tonight!
Want you to shine!
Shine the light of luck on me tonight!
(Let's go!)
[Verse 2]
I've already spent it ten times over in my head
I'd swap this Fiat Punto for a yacht out on the Med
Of course I'd see my mother, right
Her son's got an itch to come
But I'd see my fair weather friends
More than I'd go for mum's
If you
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I've spent a gas-bill's worth of change on big Thunderballs
But none of my numbers have come up at all
Life is a lottery, play if you like
And hope Lady Luck might be shining her light
I dream of Euromillions, I dreamed I scooped the lot
I'd have two words for my boss and the second one is off
But I've had fifty lucky dips, so Arthur, Guinevere
Which one of you will help to stamp my passport out of here?
[Chorus]
Shine!
Shine the light of luck on me tonight!
Want you to shine!
Shine the light of luck on me tonight!
(Let's go!)
[Verse 2]
I've already spent it ten times over in my head
I'd swap this Fiat Punto for a yacht out on the Med
Of course I'd see my mother, right
Her son's got an itch to come
But I'd see my fair weather friends
More than I'd go for mum's
If you
[Chorus]
[Bridge]
I've spent a gas-bill's worth of change on big Thunderballs
But none of my numbers have come up at all
Life is a lottery, play if you like
And hope Lady Luck might be shining her light
Shine the light (x8)
[Chorus]
Shine the light, yeah yeah yeah
Shine the light, come on (x8)
Shine the light (x4)
[Chorus]
Shine the light, yeah yeah yeah
Shine the light, come on (x8)
Shine the light (x4)
