[Verse 1] Well, I bought a little boat, I named her "Floatin' Dream" Then I needed money so I sunk her in the stream (Down she goes!) So I called up my agent, said "My dream's all wet!" He laughed and he filed, said "This is the best bet!" (Best bet, oh yeah!) [Chorus] I didn't know, oh, I didn't know (She didn't know!) That when the boat sank, my troubles would grow (mhmmmm) I didn't know, no, I didn't know (Not a clue!) That claimin' on Floatin' Dream was a federal whoa! (ahhhhh) [Verse 2] The adjuster came by, with a curious look Found a hole in the hull, said "This ain’t by the book!" (No, no, no!) Then they dredged up some dynamite, still set to ignite (What's this here?) Now my simple insurance claim didn't look so right (Not so right!) [Verse 3] Next thing you know, there's cops at my door (Knock, knock, knock) With evidence piled, it’s hard to ignore (Can't ignore!) Photos and witnesses, my plan was clear “Ma'am, this looks like sabotage!” Oh dear, oh dear! (Oh dear, oh dear!) [Chorus] I didn't know, oh, I didn't know (She didn't know!) That when the boat sank, my troubles would grow (oh no, oh no) I didn't know, no, I didn't know (No, no, no!) That sinking my dream would be the end of my show! (ahhhh) [Interlude] Ohhh I never knew (ahhhh) I never knew (ahhhhh) I never knew (ahhhhh) [Drop] ahhhhhhh (She didn't know!) [Bridge] In front of the judge, I tried to explain (What'd you say?) It was just an old boat, I meant no real pain! (No real pain!) But the gavel came down, with a thunderous roar Now I’m wearing orange on the jailhouse floor (you done now!) [Verse 4] Behind these bars, I'm a singin' the blues (Singin' the blues) About my Floatin' Dream, and my poor life's ruse (Life's big ruse!) Let this be a lesson, be clear and be wise Insurance fraud's no joke in the FBI's eyes (She didn't know) [Chorus] I didn't know, oh, I didn't know (She didn't know!) That when the boat sank, my troubles would grow (Oh no, oh no!) I didn't know, no, I didn't know (mmhmmm) Now I'm in deep water with the law in tow! (She didn't know!) [Outro] So listen up folks, let my tale unfold (hmmmm) Insurance fraud’s no joke and the law hits cold (ahhhh) Check your policies and read them through (Read them well!) Or you’ll end up singing the fraud blues too!
