Analysis of The drinks are on me ;)
Today I flipped a pancake,
it landed on the ceiling.
I scraped it off but to my dismay
the paintwork started peeling.
I ran and got my hammer
because DIY's my middle name.
I aimed and swung with all my might
and down the ceiling came. :O
Next thing I know
what looked like snow
started drifting down upon me.
A closer look revealed the truth
torn up pages of a cheater's diary.
Countless passwords and names
I found that fateful day
-all there for the taking!
Now I'm rich beyond belief
Thanks to Lulu's resident fakers.
