How Bob Lost Jim

Bob went to Vegas, where everything stays.
Except for this story.

Bob and his wife were going through tough times.
since she'd caught him with his new girl.
He begged for forgiveness and asked his wife
to give their love another whirl.
A weekend away was all they needed to respark the flame,
so they headed to Vegas, where games are played.

Wouldn't you know, his dear wife
got hot one night at the slots.
Thousands and thousands they raked in;
Bob thought it a sign from the gods.
And when he leaned in for a celebratory kiss,
his wife said, "I'd rather be a him."

You see, it turned out his old lady
had been keeping secrets, too.
She'd been wanting to make the switch,
but it was too expensive to do.
But with her winnings, she gladly paid for the change,
and just like that, Bob's marriage was gay.

Now I'd like to tell you that's where the story ends.
That Bob learned his cheating lesson and never did again.
But there's one more verse.

Bob's wife, now named Jim,
didn't forget Bob's girl.
In fact, Jim asked if he could
take her for a whirl.
Before Bob knew it, they'd run off without him.
Yes, thanks to those slots, Bob lost his Jim.
