Bad Luck

Hey kid
Don't mess this up
Cause this stuff is not a joke
This joke is not for us so don't laugh
And I know
It might sound easy
But it doesn't come cheap
And it doesn't come fast enough

What do you want me to do
Sit here and wait until fate has it's way with you

I did not know it then
Godspeed and say amen
But bad luck will find you either way
Bad luck will find you

I looked up
Shouted to the sky
I deserve some love
I'm a real nice guy and I
Think perhaps
You missed me in the brief
When the meeting was adjourned
When you turned to leave for the night

What would you like me to do?
How many hoops of fire should I aspire to jump through?

I did not know it then
Godspeed and say amen
But bad luck will find you either way
I could not comprehend
You can go ten for ten
But bad luck will find you either way

You can stay in the shade and
Never take a vacation
You can live in the basement
Make all your payments
Save all your savings, but no

So what did I learn from it all?
Not that much, but it's not all my fault

'Cause I did not know it then
Godspeed and say amen
And bad luck will find you either way
I did not comprehend
Don't matter where you end your day
No matter what they say
But bad luck will find you either way
