Verse 1:
(Patrick)
It's Tuesday night, the boys arrive,
At White Danny's house, feeling so alive.
A deck of cards, some snacks on the side,
We're here to play, come join the ride!
(Black Danny)
But first, let's roll one, light it up right,
We're gonna smoke 'til we reach new heights!
The game's afoot, so take your seat,
Oh Hell awaits, let’s bring the heat!
Chorus:
(All)
What did I bid?
Is it three or am I dreaming?
Can’t quite remember,
My brain’s a little scheming.
With laughs and smokes, we're lost in the thrill,
What did I bid? Oh, can someone reveal?
Verse 2:
(Paul)
I think I said three, but maybe it’s more,
White Danny, did you bid? I just can’t keep score!
(White Danny)
You said two, my friend, oh dear, oh my,
But we're so high, it’s just a big sigh!
(Black Danny)
When the chips are down, and our minds are fried,
Forget the rules, let's just enjoy the ride!
Chorus:
(All)
What did I bid?
Is it more than I can handle?
We’re going in circles,
Like a burning candle!
With laughter ringing, let’s play just for thrills,
What did I bid? Oh, can someone reveal?
Bridge:
(Patrick)
Hey, if we’re too stoned, let’s switch to Cribbage,
Old Milwaukee style, it’s our backup privilege.
(Paul)
From OH HELL to crib, we’ll make it a joy,
As long as I’m winning, I’m still just a boy!
Chorus:
(All)
What did I bid?
Oh man, I can't recall,
Just pass me the chips,
Let’s have a ball!
It's just a game, but we love our skills,
What did I bid? Oh, can someone reveal?
Outro:
(All)
What did I bid?
We’ve lost track while we’re dreaming,
But that’s the fun part,
In this stoner scheming.
With friends all around, laughter gives me chills,
What did I bid? Oh, can someone reveal?

The song is called "What I bid"
Style is modern broadway musical. It is about a group of 4 guys that play cards every tuesday. They smoke a lot of weed, and often forget where they are in the game.
The mood is light hearted and funny.
Key things to include:
The game is OH HELL: Oh Hell is a trick-taking card game where players bid on how many tricks they'll win, and then try to take that many tricks, scoring points for both the tricks taken and for matching their bid exactly
The guys names are Patrick, White Danny, Black Danny, and Paul.
They key joke to the song is that they get high enough that they forget what they, themselves, bid for a given hand. So the key line or hook or last line of chorus should/could be "What did I bid?"
Other things that are not central, but can be mentioned: They play at White Danny's house, when people get to stoned, they move to Cribbage (which is a milwaukee mainstay)
Also, I would like the last line of the chorus to be "What's the Bid?"
