GOOD LUCK CHARM

WHEN MY MOTHER WAS A CHILD, SHE AND HER FRIENDS HAD A CHARM
THEY RECITED WHEN THE STREET LIGHTS CAME ON. WHEN THE
STREET LIGHTS CAME ON THEY SAID:
ONE, TWO, THREE, GOOD LUCK FOR ME.

Submitter comment: THIS WORKED ONLY IF IT WAS SAID AT THE EXACT MOMENT THAT THE
STREET LIGHTS CAME ON.
