Lucky Me

"I don't believe in fate" you said
"There's nothing predetermined, I think that's all in your head"
You're not trying to tell me; it's destiny

I know it might sound strange
And I don't disagree, it's not you mind I'm trying to change
It's just the trend I've noticed when it seems I've got, nowhere to go
This I know

Then some happy accident takes place
Lack of opportunity replaced by something new
An unseen avenue

Lucky, lucky, lucky me
Defy the gods of probability
My life's one long game of Monopoly
Lucky me. Lucky me

"Well I'm not buying it", you say
"Next you tell me fate has always had a part to play"
Then you look at me with a hint of mild dismay. What can I say?

Whenever things seem to become
So hopeless with no possibility to escape from
Almost embarrassing with such high levels of, consistency
You wait and see

Then some happy accident takes place
Lack of opportunity replaced by something new
An unseen avenue

Lucky, lucky, lucky me
Defy the gods of probability
My life's one long game of Monopoly
Lucky me
Lucky, lucky, lucky me
Goods returned without a guarantee
A gambling man reluctantly agrees
Lucky me
Lucky me

I'm not trying to convince you, I wouldn't be that bold
Ask the question "Is it luck or, chance that's taken hold?"
Maybe preparation just met, opportunity
Don't try to over analyse it, lucky, lucky me

Lucky, lucky, lucky me
Defy the gods of probability
My life's one long game of Monopoly
Lucky me
Lucky, lucky, lucky me
Goods returned without a guarantee
A gambling man reluctantly agrees
Lucky me
Lucky me
