Lucky may refer to:
Lucky is a crime comedy film starring Colin Hanks. The film featured the song "I Choose Happiness" by David Choi.
After Ben wins $36 million in the lottery, Lucy marries him, strictly for the cash. Just as she's beginning to have genuine feelings for him, however, Lucy discovers that he's a serial killer whose victims all resemble her. Still, though, there's no way she's walking away from those lottery checks, even if it means losing her mind and re-burying all the bodies.
Review aggregator Rotten Tomatoes reported that 23 % of critics gave the film a positive review, based on 13 reviews.
The rating website MovieMavericks gave the film a 2 1/2 star rating saying,"check out Lucky if you’re out of new things to watch, but there are plenty of other films to see first." Kirk Honeycutt of Hollywood Reporter gave a negative review saying, "Director Gil Cates Jr. and his writing partner Kent Sublette, along with star Colin Hanks, attempt to recapture the spirit of those 1950s Ealing Studio comedies, but fail to get lucky. Nothing is bleaker than failed black comedy, which this is."
She counts the days away and waits for valentines
She says every girl in the past is just a waste of time
You know, whoa
She don't believe in miracles and make-believe
If you were blind you still could see
That she believes in me, Ohhhh
Feels like I found a pocket full of gold
I'm lucky baby
So lucky baby
Lucky to be with you today
Lucky to be the one to say "I'm lucky baby"
So lucky baby
Whenever I see your smiling face
Lucky to be the one to be lucky
Now all of heaven's angels have to wear their wings
She likes cheap sunglasses and diamond rings
You know, ohhh
She brings sunshine to a cloudy day
When we walk on by people stop and say
I'm lucky baby
So lucky baby
Lucky to be with you today
Lucky to be the one to say "I'm lucky baby"
So lucky baby
Whenever I see your smiling face
Lucky to be the one to be lucky
I'm lucky baby
So lucky baby
Lucky to be with you today
Lucky to be the one to say "I'm lucky baby"
I'm lucky baby
I got lucky when you found me
It only took one kiss to see
What did I do to get to be so lucky baby?
I'm lucky baby
Lucky baby
Lucky baby
I'm lucky baby
So lucky baby
Lucky to be with you today
Lucky to be the one to say "I'm lucky baby"
I'm lucky baby
Whenever I see your smiling face
I'm on a roll,
I'm on a roll this time
I feel my luck could change.
Kill me Sarah,
kill me again with love,
it's gonna be a glorious day.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
we are standing on the edge.
The head of state has called for me by name
but I don't have time for him.
It's gonna be a glorious day!
I feel my luck could change.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
we are standing on the edge.
We are standing on the edge
This is a story about a girl named Lucky€
Early morning, she wakes up
Knock, knock, knock on the door
It's time for makeup, perfect smile
It's you they're all waiting for
They go€
"Isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?"
And they say€
Chorus:
She's so lucky, she's a star
But she cry, cry, cries in her lonely heart, thinking
If there's nothing missing in my life
Then why do these tears come at night
Lost in an image, in a dream
But there's no one there to wake her up
And the world is spinning, and she keeps on winning
But tell me what happens when it stops?
They go€
"Isn't she lovely, this Hollywood girl?"
And they say€
Chorus
"Best actress, and the winner is€Lucky!"
"I'm Roger Johnson for Pop News standing outside the arena waiting for Lucky"
"Oh my god€here she comes!"
Isn't she lucky, this Hollywood girl?
She is so lucky, but why does she cry?
If there's nothing missing in her life
Why do tears come at night?

Do you hear me? I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Ooh ooh ooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this
Every time we say goodbye
I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you, I will
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
Lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Though the breezes through trees
Move so pretty you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning 'round
You hold me right here, right now
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been
Lucky to be coming home again
I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed
Lucky to be coming home someday
Ooh ooh ooh
Scared and lonely
Going out for the night
Shakin' all over
And wishing I'd never come here
He pulled up in a
Cloud of smoke
So much was said
But nobody spoke a word
So I took a chance
And he followed me home
I knew he wouldn't beg
So I gave in without fighting
Been so long
Since I loved this way
So I asked him
If he would stay for a while
Lucky comes easy
Lucky's not shy
And if you're lucky
You'll go for a ride, for a ride
We talked for a while
And he told me it was nice
We laughed and we cried and
I knew that I could love him
He got up
To say goodbye
I said where you going
He said that he must leave
Lucky comes easy
Lucky's not shy
And if you're lucky
You'll go for a ride, for a ride
Lucky comes easy
Lucky's not shy
And if you're lucky
You'll go for a ride, for a ride
Lucky takes you out for a ride, for a ride
Lucky takes you out for a ride
Lucky comes easy
Lucky's not shy
And if you're lucky
You'll go for a ride
Lucky comes easy
Lucky's not shy
And if you're lucky
Thunder cracks, the sky is crying
On her back she’s pushing trying
He holds her hand and kneels beside her bed
Break the silence baby screaming
In slow motion she ain’t dreaming she closed her eyes looked
Up to God and says
Should I cry a little more
Should I try a little more
I’d pay the cost and laugh it off
I’d do it all a thousand times again
No Regrets
Livings hard and dying’s easy
My mistakes they won’t defeat me
I like to burn the candle at both ends
I’ve broke some hearts been broken hearted
I’ve run away from fires I’ve started
I didn’t break but tried my best to bend
Should I cry a little more
Should I try a little more
I’d pay the cost and laugh it off
I’d do it all a thousand times again
No Regrets
No regrets-for things I’ve done
No regrets-for wars I’ve won
No regrets-for fires I’ve started
No regrets-for faith departed
Should I cry a little more
Should I die a little more
Should I lie a little more
Should I get high a little more
Should I cry a little more
Should I try a little more
I’d pay the cost and laugh it off
I’d do it all a thousand times again
No Regrets
I want to see how lucky Lucky can be
I saw you through my blind intoxication
My shock induced insane self medication
You looked at me and smiled
Said get ready to get wild
Sugar you just need a brief vacation
I want to see how lucky Lucky can be
I want to ride with my Angel and live shockingly
I want to drive to the edge and into the sea
I want to see how lucky Lucky can be
I was dried up I was starving I was mangled
I looked like hell twisted up and tangled
You whispered in my ear
The ghosts are gone it's clear
For too long you've been tied up you've been strangled
I don't want to ride on the shotgun side
Don't want to be a quaint observer on this super sonic ride
Double down split the aces to the races
I'm on a roll
I'm on a roll this time
I feel my luck could change
Kill me Sarah
Kill me again with love
It's gonna be a glorious day
Pull me out of the air crash
Pull me out of the lake
?Cause I'm your superhero
We are standing on the edge
The head of state has called for me by name
But I don't have time for him
It's gonna be a glorious day!
I feel my luck could change
Pull me out of the air crash
Pull me out of the lake
?Cause I'm your superhero
We are standing on the edge
I'm takin' to the bridge and there's a different country
I'm bringing with me the people I know deep down are funky
Oh yeah we dap we got the juice it's on tap
Never take the time to rewind all the weak crap
Here take it it's yours the gift is calling
The sunshine be falling our way first every morning
I'm a magician you see I'm christened with condition
Held over from a future would I've come to you so listen
There's a place out in deep space
Where all the brothers chant and dance and rant
And shave their heads like Buddha
I'm a fly guy you know I'm smoother
Of course no remorse is felt for all those loser crews
I do not care what you do, I always screw up
But when I do it's nothing like you, I wish you grew up
You're saying anything like promised to get clean
Won't kick half dead fucked up in the head
Just get him out of here he's making me sick
We push a sucker out
With much force and much clout
Didn't want to do it
Thats not what were about
But we got to have a limit
How low can you get it
Seems about time to
Change the subject
And sing about the wise eyed
That makes me feel
Good and never do
I leave misunderstood
I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what I'm gonna do It's like this that
Earth is where is at
Mix a melody with some back chat
Tell 'em again
Dam I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what you're gonna do it's like this that
Earth is where it's at
Mix a melody with some back chat
I'm rollin' slow no particular place to go so nothings changed
The more things stay the same the more it doesn't matter
To a latte day St. Bernard acting hard
But I throw down like a crazy retard
But what cold make a man
Wanna walk around the school yard with his tool hard
What could make the switch to call a woman a bitch
It probably dawned when you couldn't get a date to the prom
And you were stuck with Beavis
Let's leave us on a note of positivity
I'm saying this for levity
But if I leave it brief I call it brevity
I said I see the people rocking
Which means there's no stopping the flow
And you can just tell 'em that you know
Every night yeah we turning up
And comin' off live
Like and final 311 battle breakin idols
On the one you never heard before
You know the hardcore rockin
Pumping the dance floor
Leave ya feet sore lookin for your Micatin
Cecause the mic is deadly int he mood we in
Certified not fakin coool like a Jamaican
Every time the enemy hear us they will be shakin'
I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what I'm gonna do It's like this that
Earth is where is at
Mix a melody with some back chat
Tell 'em again
Dam I know you feel good too
You got a choice of what you're gonna do it's like this that
Earth is where it's at
Mix a melody with some back chat
He met the world as a Dalkeith boy
Raised from a shaft at Monktonhall
In a well oiled cage that locked away his dreams
An '85 veteran face from the gallery
A ghost from the civil war in the family
He stood his ground on the picket line
'Til all that he was left with were his father's cough
From his mother's eyes
That would hold a tear for the very first time
When the government, they took his job away
Now fist in hand you stand in line
Declare his name and mark his time
To some the only proof that they're alive
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky, lucky
He made his first down payment
On a sharp Italian suit
He sewed razor blades into the lapels
See him sweating on the dance floor
Cool dust oozing out of every pore
A hard man with a hard life
That's a story that he'll tell you
Down at Easter Road till his throat is raw
On a Saturday, he knows the score
Till the whistle blows and the tempers
With their colors fade away
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky, lucky
On the helipads at Aberdeen
By the platforms, drilling oil rich seas
Where the trawlers are getting fewer every year
By the furnaces at Ravenscraig
By the padlocks holding John Brown's gates
In the desert, in the fields of South Armagh
Where the poppies grow behind the Hampden roar
Behind the drums in Genoa
On the deck that rides a South Atlantic swell
Born to fight out of the tightest corner
You can bet on him with the odds against you
They'll not put him down no matter how they try
Oh, he could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky, lucky
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been anybody
But he was born lucky
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been, he could have been
He could have been lucky
He could have been lucky, lucky
He could have been you
He could have been me
He could have been lucky

Little Billy drunk on beer
Plops down behind the steering wheel
His prom date pukes on her brand new dress
He wonders who'll clean up the mess
His car skids goes off the road
Hits a tree and then explodes
His death was quick painless they say
Hope when I die I go that way
But,
You may not be so lucky (x4)
Little Debbie drunk on wine
Says she's havin' a very good time
She thinks she's havin' the time of her life
Prom date sharpens a big butcher knife
Like a cheap horror movie on the silver screen
The night is filled with deadly screams
Would've been salesman's famous capers
It even made the big city papers
You may not be so lucky (x4)
President laughs shaves his head
Pushes the button and bombs the Reds
Reds hits back with all they've got
Now we're all in the melting pot
Let's have a big cheer for the government
Who's finally ended our descent
Vaporized masses in the shopping mall
Never got to see the H-bomb fall
Little Billy drunk on beer
Plops down behind the steering wheel
His prom date pukes on her brand new dress
He wonders who'll clean up the mess
His car skids goes off the road
Hits a tree and then explodes
His death was quick painless they say
Hope when I die I go that way
But,
You may not be so lucky (x3)
Never gonna be so lucky
Little Debbie drunk on wine
Says she's havin' a very good time
She thinks she's havin' the time of her life
Prom date sharpens a big butcher knife
Like a cheap horror movie on the silver screen
The night is filled with deadly screams
Would've been salesman's famous capers
It even made the big city papers
Do you hear me? I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Boy I hear you in my dreams
I feel your whisper across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart
You make it easier when life gets hard
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend
Lucky to have been where I have been

Ooh ooh ooh
They don't know how long it takes
Waiting for a love like this

Ooh ooh ooh
Ooh ooh ooh, ooh
I hope you get to be on a TV game show
And win a million dollars 'cause that's lucky
And I hope a bartender appears with a shot and a beer
Every time you holler 'cause that's lucky
And I hope you get to live in a big old crib
And a fancy neighborhood 'cause that's lucky
And you never have to fight for an invite
To the coolest parties out in Hollywood, oh that's lucky
But if you were just a regular guy
Living beneath this red, white and big blue sky
With your job, your car, your family, your friends
The love of a girl that you know will never end
Then you've already got it made every single day
Yeah, you know what it's like to be lucky
Well, I hope you get the chance for a paparazzi romance
With a supermodel 'cause, yeah man that's lucky
And I hope you're getting chased first place full throttle
In a NASCAR race, oh that's lucky
But if you were just a regular guy
Living beneath this red, white and big blue sky
With your job, your car, your family, your friends
The love of a girl that you know will never end
Then you've already got it made every single day
Yeah, you know what it's like to be lucky, yeah
Well, don't you feel lucky?
But if you're just a regular guy
Living beneath this red, white and big blue sky
With your hopes, your dreams, your faith and your prayers
Every breath you take, every moment you share
Then you've already got it made every single day
Yeah, you know what it's like
Yeah, brother you know what it's like to be lucky, yeah
To be lucky yeah, to be lucky yeah
Come on, don't you feel it?
Yeah, you're lucky
I'M LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO FRIENDS AND LOVE
I'M LUCKY, OH SO LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO PUSH AND SHOVE
I can walk under ladders brave
No black cat ever crossed my trail
No kind of curse could get to me
Only good's gonna come my way
I was born in a video arcade
Graduated to a poolhall shark
Then I was off betting on horse races
Always been a winner, always been a star
I'M LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO FRIENDS AND LOVE
I'M LUCKY, OH SO LUCKY
SOMEONE LOVES ME UP ABOVE
I was lucky for quite a while
But then again I only played with dimes
Mistaken once, but never twice
I never lose when I roll the dice
I'm blessed, but I'm a mess
My best friend could be the Roulette
Some sink and some grow wings
You know, we all got the answers deep within
I'M LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO FRIENDS AND LOVE
I'M LUCKY, OH SO LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO PUSH AND SHOVE
I'm lucky, so lucky
Lucky when it comes to friends and love
Someone really loves me up above
Yeah!
I'M LUCKY, LUCKY, LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO FRIENDS AND LOVE
WE'RE LUCKY, OH SO LUCKY
WHEN IT COMES TO PUSH AND SHOVE
We're lucky, so lucky
Lucky when it comes to friends and love
Someone really loves me up above
I'm lucky!
I knew how it felt to be another one in need of someone to show the way
Until you saw a part of me that nobody else
Could see and my life hasn't been the same...
You make me feel lucky as I can be...
Before I couldn't get a break,
Never had a chance to make
The impressions I want to
But now it falls right into place
When I get to see your face
Then there's nothing that I can't do...
No more dark days, only sun rays
No more hard ways with you today
(Steve Bi)
Maybe I'm a fool, one day we'll know
Maybe I'm a fool, only time can show
But now these lonely nights are killin' me
I'm so far away from reality
The pain grows stronger
I can't hold on much longer
It hurts when I think of how I had your sweet love
And still I set you free
Lucky, I said I hope you try and understand
Lucky, guess it's not like we planned
Lucky, you know I really really love you so
But Lucky, I still have to go
I wish that you could see the tears on my face
Painful memories of a love I can't replace
I'm sailin' in the past, and I'm sinkin' fast
You can hear my S.O.S. cryin' out for tenderness
Though yesterday's dead and gone
Your magic still lingers on
It hurts when I think of how I had your sweet love
And how I set you free
Lucky, I said I hope you try and understand
Lucky, I guess it's not like we planned, oh no no
Oh Lucky, you know I really really love you so
But Lucky, I still have to go
Oh Lucky, I said I hope you try and understand
Lucky, I guess it's not like we planned
Oh Lucky, you know I really really love you so
But Lucky, I still have to go
Lucky, I said I hope you try and understand
And so we meet and there are sparks,
Its gold it's new and free from sharks,
Your house is big it seems so clean,
Your cleaning lady comes and we're discreet.
Are you lightning?
'Cause I'm waiting.
What's the timing?
I'm not playing.
And so I act like I'm 21,
Wide eyed and drifting unto sun,
Pay back is here my legs are numb,
I'm back, it's square one feeling dumb.
The sweet things,
When do they come?
Have I gone deaf?
What's the song?
Are you lightning?
'Cause I'm waiting,
This is frightening,
I'm not playing.
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh...
Ooh ooh ooh ooh ooh...
I see you in my sheets, I see you in my sleep,
I see you through the mirror
You sing we're not to steal.
The only thing I'm scared of is the secret that you keep,
I know where you are, I dunno where you are.
Don't make the other wonder the others might sting,
Tell me what you're thinking,
Do not let me twist.
Just look at the size of you.
I see you in my sheets, I see you in my sleep,
I see you with something that's funny I hear you I almost weep,
I see you from my steps, you're walking up my street,
But just look at the size of you.
I see you in my sheets, I see you in my sleep,
I see you from my steps you're walking up my street.
And just look at the size of you,
The sun shine on and on...
The sun shine on and on...
Who are you sent from heaven just for me?
That may not be, but that's how it seems.
Why have you come into my life?
You've taken my heart.
How do you make me cry?
You say you don't believe in luck and I do agree with you.
Sometimes I really have to wonder.
I sure feel lucky when I'm next to you.
I'll never understand what you see in me.
I'm just a normal guy, plain as can be.
I really love to see you smile.
You've turned me upside down and I don't even mind.
You say you don't believe in luck and I do agree with you.
Sometimes I really have to wonder.
Lucky
Walking home
On Saint Patty's Day,
I found a lucky penny,
Along the way.
Put in my pocket,
The one with the hole in it.
These days things don't seem to go my way...
I know it it's tough sometimes to be with me,
When I'm predicting rain most everyday.
But lately I've been right, almost every time
These days things don't seem to go my way...
What would I do?
If I hadn't already got lucky once with you?
I hadn't already got lucky once for you?
So I keep tellin' myself something's gonna change.
Maybe I'll get lucky,
Then I can smile again
'Cause that's what I wanna do,
I wanna smile for you
I'm waiting for some things to go my way...
What would I do,
If I hadn't already got lucky once with you?
If I hadn't already got lucky once with you?
FUCK SAINT PATTY'S DAY!
I'm throwing my pennies away!
But I'm holdin' on,
To a single lucky charm!
That's what I wanna do,
I wanna smile for you,
I'm waiting for somethings to go my way...
What would I do,
If I hadn't already got lucky once with you?
If I hadn't of found you,
What would I do,
If I hadn't already got lucky once with you?
If I hadn't of, wouldn't of, couldn't of,
What would I do,
Pack up the cats and move to the city
Leave the checks and the balance behind
[Incomprehensible] in the city
I'll move with nothing left to prove to you
When I saw you standing there
It was crystal clear to me
that it just wouldn't be fair
for you to be stuck with a guy like me
when i saw you yesturday
in my shirt that doesn't fit
it was crystal clear to me
that you were ment to wear it
every time i think
of all the things we did
(hanging out, trying to get drunk)
I just want to know
how i became
the lucky one
When i was just growing up
luck would never cross my path
I would break a mirror under a ladder
in the path of a black cat
i never learned how to be cool
the only "f" i got in school
I can't belive you talked to me
after you watched me play the fool
every time i think
of all the things we did
(haning out, trying to get drunk)
I just want to know
how I became
the lucky one
when will it be forever?
what was i really thinking?
I wasted time wondering why
when we could've wasted that time drinking
it will take more than letter
to patch things up this time
I only hope i'm lucky enough
to win you back again as mine
every time i think
of all the things we did
(haning out, trying to get drunk)
I just want to know
how I became
"Joliet," she says, "is the darkest part of a man…"
It's angry and slick
Into her letters writes
through herself each time
she thinks of him
Trips her way down south
into mystery's mouth
and he follows her there
It's what she doesn't say
that makes you want to stay
and try to comfort her
I talked to the cousins of people who knew you
I asked them the questions they expected to hear
Like maybe a killing went down in your town
Maybe it's the prison
or the birth of barbed wire
"Joliet," she says, "is the darkest part of a man…"
It's shaped like liberty's bell
cracked and common law
and stretched out over its flaws
like an ink-less well
The hanging judge in town
records her comments down
she saves the crowd the truth -
and deals with it herself
Fills that hollow well
with nothing left to prove
I talked to mountains and streams that pushed through there
I talked to the trees that had no fruit to bear
to the colorless people that sat there
beneath her
curled up, stared
I talked to the cousins of people who knew you
I asked them the questions they expected to hear
Like maybe a killing went down in your town
Maybe it's the prison
or the birth of barbed wire
Joliet
It was a monday, when my lover told me,
"never pay the reaper with love only."
What could i say to you, except, "i love you."
And "i'd give my life for yours."
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones, dear.
The first time we made love, i... i wasn't sober.
(and you told me you loved me over and over!)
How could i ever love another, when i miss you every day...
Remember the time we made love in the roses?
(and you took my picture in all sorts of poses!)
How could i ever get over you, when i'd give my life for yours.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones, dear.
My dear, It's time to say i thank god for you.
I thank god for you in each and every single way.
And, i know... i know.. i know.. i know...
It's time to let you know. time to let you know.
Time to let you know. time to sit here and say...
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones.
I know we are... we are the lucky ones, dear.
We are the lucky ones, dear...

Fall down
Geldof
put your head between your knees and breathe real deep
let it in
let it out
until it's over
I might scribble, I might scrawl
I might claw at the wall
I might storm and rage and thunder
oh Christ but then later
in the incinerator
something inside seems to fall asunder
I need to scream every now and again
try to understand it's only me
not only cripples have a need for crutches
and if they
ever take
you away
from me... I'd
fall down
fall down and lie still
moving in for the kill
putting several boots in
lie helpless
God help us
our heads up
we'd scream
put your head between your knees and breathe real deep
let it in
let it out
Mean Mr. Mustard says, "He's bored of life in The District
Can't afford the French Quarter high"
Says, "It gets old real quick"
And he pales up next to me
Scrawled on the pavement
It says, "Son, time is all the luck you need"
And if I stay Lucky then my tongue will stay tied
And I won't betray the things that I hide
There's not enough years underneath this belt
For me to admit the way that I felt
Mean Mr. Mustard says, "Don't be the wave that crashes
From a sea of discontent"
He says, "He's wrestled with that blanket
It leaves you cold and wet anyway you stretch it"
Divine apathy! Disease of my youth
Watch that you don't catch it
And if I stay Lucky then my tongue will stay tied
And I won't betray the things that I hide
There's not enough years underneath this belt
For me to admit the way that I felt
And I'm the wave that crashes fom a sea that turns itself
Inside out every chance I get to see what it's like in hell
And if I stay Lucky then my tongue will stay tied
And I won't betray the things that I hide
There's not enough years underneath this belt
For me to admit the way that I felt
And if I stay Lucky then my tongue will stay tied
And I won't betray the things that I hide
There's not enough years underneath this belt
There's a man in a cutaway
Buying drinks for the room
All the cheer raining down on the day
Comes to nothing and leaves by the broom
On the streets named for presidents
Where the kingfishers flew
All the cornflowers sewn in the fence
Keep the memory from tearing in two
But if I should lose I'd wake up feeling lucky
If I should take a fall or throw it all away
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
The rest of my days
The storms came down out of Mackinaw
As the weigh stations closed
There was a terrible darkness I saw
Pulling up on the side of the road
But if I should lose I'd wake up feeling lucky
If I should take a fall or throw it all away
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
The rest of my days
So I'll drink to the wealthy man
And I'll pray for the poor
And I'll hold onto you while I can
In the darkness just to be sure
That if I should lose I'll wake up feeling lucky
If I should take a fall or throw it all away
I wouldn't mind lying beside you
1, 2, 3, huh
Little Billy drunk on beer
Plops down behind the steering wheel
His prom date pukes on her brand new dress
He wonders who'll clean up the mess
His car skids goes off the road
Hits a tree and then explodes
His death was quick painless they say
Hope when I die, I go that way
But, you may not be so lucky
You may not be so lucky
You may not be so lucky
You may not be so lucky
Little Debbie drunk on wine
Says she's havin' a very good time
She thinks she's havin' the time of her life
Prom date sharpens a big butcher knife
Like a cheap horror movie on the silver screen
The night is filled with deadly screams
Would've been salesman's famous capers
It even made the big city papers
You may not be so lucky
You may not be so lucky
You may not be so lucky
You may not be so lucky
President laughs shaves his head
Pushes the button and bombs the Reds
Reds hits back with all they've got
Now we're all in the melting pot
Let's have a big cheer for the government
Who's finally ended our descent
Vaporized masses in the shopping mall
Never got to see the H-bomb fall
Little Billy drunk on beer
Plops down behind the steering wheel
His prom date pukes on her brand new dress
He wonders who'll clean up the mess
His car skids goes off the road
Hits a tree and then explodes
His death was quick painless they say
Hope when I die, I go that way
But, you may not be so lucky
You may not be so lucky
You may not be so lucky
Never gonna be so lucky
Little Debbie drunk on wine
Says she's havin' a very good time
She thinks she's havin' the time of her life
Prom date sharpens a big butcher knife
Like a cheap horror movie on the silver screen
The night is filled with deadly screams
Would've been salesman's famous capers

Do you hear me , I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean , Under the
open sky oh my, baby I'm trying .
[ Colbie Caillat ]
Boy I hear you in my dreams , I feel your whisper
across the sea
I keep you with me in my heart , You make it easier
when life gets hard .
[ Colbie Caillat & Jason Mraz ]
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend , Lucky to
have been where I have been , Lucky to be coming home
again oh ... oh ... oh ...
[ Colbie Caillat & Jason Mraz ]
They don't know how long it takes , Waiting for a love
like this
Every time we say goodbye , I wish we had one more kiss
I'll wait for you I promise you , I will .
[ Colbie Caillat & Jason Mraz ]
I'm lucky I'm in love with my best friend , Lucky to
have been where I have been , Lucky to be coming home
again , I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed , Lucky to be
coming home someday .
[ Jason Mraz ]
And so I'm sailing through the sea , To an island where
we'll meet
You'll hear the music, feel the air , I'll put a flower
in your hair
[ Colbie Caillat ]
Though the breezes through trees , Move so pretty
you're all I see
As the world keeps spinning round ,You hold me right
here right now

again , I'm lucky we're in love in every way
Lucky to have stayed where we have stayed , Lucky to be
coming home someday .
I think it's a miracle
That you're laying here right by my side
Someone so beautiful,
Long brown hair, and your pretty green eyes
Maybe I've done something along the way
Sure seems someone's smilin' down on me
And I'll never have to look for love again
[Chorus:]
So lucky I found you
So happy I'm with you
Oh honey I know that
There's no mistaking I met up with you
And I'm grateful, grateful, grateful, I got lucky with you
Sometime it takes a while
And other times it comes naturally
But I give one look at you
I knew that you were meant for me
You know I'm not gonna walk away
Be here tomorrow just like today
And I'll never have to look for love again
[Chorus:]
So lucky I found you
So happy I'm with you
Oh baby I know that
There's no mistaking I met up with you
And I'm grateful, grateful, grateful, I got lucky with you
It's such a simple thing
But it's so beautiful
That you're mine, I'm yours
[Chorus:]
So lucky I found you
So happy I'm with you
Oh baby I know that
There's no mistaking I met up with you
And I'm grateful, grateful, grateful...
[Chorus:]
So lucky I found you
So happy I'm with you
Oh baby I know that
There's no mistaking I met up with you
[Verse 1:]
Damn, she get to have it everyday,
What a lucky girl, ummm but tonight I'll take her place, I'm a lucky girl. Damn do you spread her legs this way? what a lucky girl, umm your the king at just fore-play, I'm a lucky girl
[Chorus:]
I know you got a girl, and I'm know I'm wrong, but a hard man good to find.Yeah she get to have it all year long. so can it just keep ya tonight? Man I hit the lotto, Should I rub the genie in the bottle? & if I don't see ya tomorrow, I'm not mad.shes the lucky girl.

Damn I'm so lucky
Lucky [x8]
If I can't see you tomorrow that's okay baby I can hold you now
This little penny is to dream on
To make all your wishes come true
Hip hip hooray
I'm in my big black holiday
No bulls died today
To a very unappreciative earth and sky
The land is recoiled
Asking as if it had said why
My ship leaves today
And I'm safely lowered away
Guess who I walked into
Guess who walked right up to say
A bloody nose and a bloody knife
Now I've disposed of my routine life
All seemed to implore seconds more
Give me more of this sublime night
So I guess I'll give it up
Yeah I guess I will
What's the use in pushing
When it's all uphill
I can't be appointed
Keeper of the flame
Without two to carry
It won't burn the same, oh
It seems obvious to me
But then again
Could be
You just never felt that way
I wish you believed in life
Believed in fate
Believed you were lucky
And worth the wait
'Cause life could be lovely
Life could be so great
It gets so embarrassing
So I acquiesce
And I'll change my mind again
You change your address, oh
It seems logical to me
But then again
Could be
I was simply not that smart
I thought you believed in life
Believed in fate
Believed you were lucky
And worth the wait
'Cause life could be lovely
Life could be so great
There must be some other door that they are saving
Behind which my happiness lies
I won't be wasting my words
To tell you hopes that I had
We can just leave it alone for now
I wish you belief in life
Belief in fate
Belief you are lucky
And worth the wait
'Cause life could be lovely
I drowned my girlfriend in her wishing well
I'm not afraid of afterlife hell
'Cause I live it everyday
I live it every day
I lit a fire on my neighbor's lawn
I didn't know to me they were were my pawns
'Cause I live it everyday
I live it every day
i know it's not considered right
The way I live my days and nights
i always thought I'd rather be considered lucky than good
I buy my pron off the internet
I get so much fucking junk mail...my only regret
'Cause I live it everyday
I live it every day
I know we don't think alike
Your always wrong I'm always right
Acting not so secretly
waking up every day in the same bed for nine long years and it all goes by.
i'm glad with what i got so you won't hear one word of regret coming out of my mouth.
i've wasted so much goddamn precious time worrying and complaining.
i'm so spoiled my eyes sewn shut.
i thought i was caught in a rut,
but i'm in no danger.
yeah, i'm lucky.
some people are more dull than me.
i'm so afraid of turning into a blank face.
did you get lost on the drive?
how does it feel to be completely unnerved by the repetitive pounding of every day?
and every fucking day you're doing something,
how does it feel to go nowhere?
where will you be 15 years from now?
because accomplishments are nothing but instant gratification.
Wipe away the summer air
You don't wanna see
That's you in that Photograph from 1973
And you don't even know me
God only Knows I wanna be
The other side of misery
Gimme a plate of Fluorescein
I'm gonna paint an ugly scene
All of the things I wanna say
Can't get a word out anyway
Falling away after today
Nothing to lose so come what may
Don't wake me
You got away from me somehow
And all we tried to be
Everything is different now
The mind's eye fails to see
D d d d d d d damn She get to have it every day. What a Lucky Girl
ooohh well tonight Ill take her place. Im a lucky girl
Damn do you spread her legs this way. What a Lucky Girl
ummm Your the king at this foreplay. ima Lucky girl
Bridge: i know you got a girl and I know that Im wrong but a hard mans good to find.
Yeah she get to have it all year long so can i just get tonight.
Chrous: Man I hit the Lotto lotto
Should I rub the genie in the bottle bottle
If I dont see you tomorrow morrow

2nd verse: D d d d d d d damn she get to have this every night. What a lucky girl

Bridge Repeat
Chorus Repeat
Breakdown: ohh loving everything you do.
so ima put it down for you
gotta special treat for you
So i guess that makes you lucky too
ever since you made your move
i feel like i found my 4 leaf clover just wanna hold ya
i hate to send ya home
You can't save me from myself
You can't save her
You're lucky if you save yourself
parked in your car, you're safe, you're saved. and though your hands shake and your lungs ache and the belt chafes, somehow you're still safe. four feet up, the road just stops at a forty-foot drop, where your high beams catch the last seam before the air sinks over the black brink. you must have dozed. you came so close with your eyes closed. but somehow, you're alive now, and wide awake. your foot's still on the
The last thing that old Lucky said
Was come now Daniel, a closed mouth don't get fed
The last thing that old lucky did
Was old lucky looked out for this poor kid
There's so much on your mind as you pass the time
Everyone's innocent, committed no crimes
Talking about plans and future scams
You came in as a boy but left as a man
You know you never meant to cause harm
A riot kicks off and they sound the alarm
They pit race against race in this tragic place
Race against race, we stand face to face
The last thing that old Lucky said
Was come now Daniel, a closed mouth don't get fed
The last thing that old lucky did
Was old lucky looked out for this poor kid
Get out of your bunk and throw some spades
Looking back to those better days
Times of no worries when all was okay
If you'd just done that you'd of gotten away
And Wednesday in stores you get what you need
Line up like animals, it's time to feed
Take away your freedom, hold on to your pride
It's all you've got when your hands are tied
The last thing that old Lucky said
Was come now Daniel, a closed mouth don't get fed
The last thing that old lucky did
Was old lucky looked out for this poor kid
It's about time now that you find out your egos a
coffin, so lie down.
It's about time now that you put your pride away,
'Cause there's something about how the words sound when
they're coming out of your own mouth
That make you wonder what you think this weighs.
We're the lucky ones
And we tore these days undone.
We're the bastard sons
Who squandered every mile they let us run.
You've heard enough by now to know,
There's lines to cross and lines to leave alone.
You're worth a fools weight in gold
Until they let you go.
For what it's worth I think you've got some nerve.
It's what you earn and not what you deserve
That keep the feet below your knees planted to the
ground,
So set your sights ahead and chase it down.
We're the lucky ones
And we tore these days undone.
We're the bastard sons
Who squandered every mile they let us run.
If this is all a dream
Then I beg you to let me sleep,
'Cause I've found something worth all I've given up
Give in, fade out.
Raise the bar, or set it down,
'Cause you can't change the rules they made to suit
yourself.
Give in, fade out.
Raise the bar, or set it down,
'Cause you can't change the rules they made to suit
yourself.
We're the lucky ones
And we tore these days undone.
We're the bastard sons
Who squandered every mile they let us run.
(We're the lucky ones)
If this is all a dream
(When it's said and done)
Then I beg you to let me sleep,
(We're the bastard sons)
'Cause I've found something worth all I've given up

Cross the line and erase any doubt
You walk the carpet until you wear it out
Listening to songs tearing at your heart
With every box you pack you feel like you could start
Crying at the feet of an angel that offers no mercy
Standing like a statue through the ages
and youæ®e on your knees
CHORUS: Sometimes you feel lucky
Sometimes you feel lucky
Sometimes you feel lucky
You still believe
Looking in the mirror and staring past yourself
Everyone is helpful but no oneæ¯ any help
And just like a ghost that floats above the floors
You glide down the hallway through the automatic doors
And these streets pretend to be an old friend
familier and knowing
But you have nothing else in common
save for where youæ®e going
CHORUS
Say goodbye to the last guest leaving
and room seems empty
Sometimes you just want to scream
til you break down gently
And now itæ¯ years from then so littleæ¯ ever said
To remind us of the age, to bring back the dead
But memory is a funny thing what it chooses to forget
The evidence of lives weæ³e lived and ones we havenæ° yet
I'd rather be lucky than good.
Duggin' that lightning south pole, goin' in on that power bar,
Raising my pick-up truck with a train.
Hooking it to a big bass, making me some of that cold casts,
The way I live ain't hard to explain.
I'd rather be lucky than good,
Tough than pretty,
Rockin' in the country than rollin' in the city.
Spend my life rolling them dice,
Instead of living like everybody says I should.
I'd rather be lucky, rather be lucky than good.
Staying at home last night, one to run a red light,
Knowing when to go all in.
Coming up with the right line, picking up one that's so fine,
Ain't got no business talking to a ten.
I'd rather be lucky than good,
Tough than pretty,
Rockin' in the country than rollin' in the city.
Spend my life rolling them dice,
Instead of living like everybody says I should.
I'd rather be lucky, rather be lucky than good.
I'd rather be lucky than good,
Country than hood,
Any old day, I'm bailin' hay,
Fixin' my truck, gettin' it stuck,
Covered in mud, ice cold Bud.
Wettin' that line, sippin' that shine,
Eatin' fried chick, guitar pickin'
Hey, do you like the way
Colt Ford's thumpin', got your stereo pumpin'.
Hey, do you like the way
Colt Ford's pumpin', got the girls all jumpin'
Lucky than good,
Tough than pretty,
Rockin' in the country than rollin' in the city.
Spend my life rolling them dice,
Instead of living like everybody says I should.
I'd rather be lucky, rather be lucky than good.
Hey, do you like the way
Colt Ford's thumpin', got your stereo pumpin'.
Hey, do you like the way
Don't you ever, feel sad
Lean on me, when times get bad
When the day come, and you know your down
In a river of trouble, you're 'bout to drown
Hold on, cause I'm coming
Hold on, I'm coming
I'm on my way, your lover where
If your cold, I will be your cover
Never have to worry, because I am here
You dont need to suffer, cause I am near
Say
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
Hold on, I'm coming
Lemme hear ya'll
You talk to me
For satisfaction, oh, hold on
Call my name, oh, call my name yeah for quick reaction
Yeah yeah yeah yeah
Oh don't you ever,
oh don't you ever, be sad,
I want you to lean on me, when times get bad,
When the day comes, and I know you been around,
In a river of trouble, you you you you about to drown
Hold on I'm coming
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
Hold on 'cause I'm coming
Hold on I'm coming
(just hold on baby)
Hold on, I'm coming (here I come)
Hold on, I'm coming (take my hand)
Hold on, (don't you ever) I'm coming (here I come)
It sure looks good in the picture books
Makes me stop and take second looks
Yeah, lots of white sand on big white beach
Everything right within my reach
I wanna go where the grass is green
But I guess I'll have to take myself with me
And I'm not sure that that's who I wanna see
Cradle to tombstone there's not much in between
Except for crosses, crossroads
And stories that we leave behind us
Wise men ask why, the lucky just believe
The lucky just believe
How did everything get to be such a mess
I wish there was a place called no regrets
Where I could just sit and put up my feet
Then come along and bury me
Say goodnight to this frustration
Live my life like a long vacation
But I'm not sure that that's who I wanna be
Cradle to tombstone there's not much in between
Except for crosses, crossroads
And stories that we leave behind us
Wise men ask why but the lucky just believe
The lucky just believe
She says she digs me for who I am
She doesn't need to understand
This journey I've been on
Maybe she's the one
Maybe she's the one
Maybe she's the one
Cradle to tombstone there's not much in between
Except for crosses, crossroads
And stories that we leave behind us
Wise men ask why but the lucky just believe
Yeah, the lucky just believe, I believe, oh I believe
Some people live all their lives in the past
No longer believe in, a love that can last.
Some people never let others come close
Even when they need them the most.
And some folks keep hiding behind a locked door
Others find comfort, in the hands of the lord.
Some people work all their lives to the bone
Suddenly they wake up alone.
Some folks get tired of turning their heads
Looking at love from a far
If you have someone lying there with you tonight
I hope you know how lucky you are
Now some people live on the edge till the end
Finding the bottle the closest of friends
They´ve lost that one love they thought was so true
And the courage to find someone new
And some people never quite learn how to give.
Never let go of their hearts.
If you have someone lying there, with you tonight.
I hope you know how lucky you are.
Some people find out the hard way,
Just what it means.
Living alone in this world
It ain´t what it seems - what it seems.
And we´re all getting tired of turning our heads,
Looking at love from a far.
If you have someone lying there with you tonight,
I hope you know how lucky you are.
If you have someone lying there with you tonight
Do you hear me,
I'm talking to you
Across the water across the deep blue ocean
Under the open sky, oh my, baby I'm trying
Se que quiero cuando te vas
Supe desde tiempo atrás
Es que mi corazón no sabe querer
Hasta volverte a ver
Suerte que despierto junto a ti
Suerte que sentí lo que sentí
Suerte que regresas para mí
Nadie tiene la razón
De que exista el amor
Solo hay un tu y yo
Las promesas de los dos
Me esperaras aquí estaré
Lo se
Suerte que despierto junto a ti
Suerte que sentí lo que sentí
Suerte que regresas para mí
Suerte que hay más por conocer
Suerte que contigo creceré
Suerte que te tengo al volver
And so I'm sailing through the sea
To an island where we'll meet
You'll hear the music fill the air
I'll put a flower in your hair
Todo tiene final feliz
Desde que te conocí
No hay más que las ganas de estar
Y volver a empezar
Suerte que despierto junto a ti
Suerte que sentí lo que sentí
Suerte que regresas para mí
Suerte que hay más por conocer
Suerte que contigo creceré
Wait a second I'm not through wasting my time away with you. Because there's nothing in this world I'd rather do than sit back and drift away, and feel it seem like yesterday. When being kids and fuckin up felt OK and every thing we did was wrong but we did it anyway. My dear friends...how its been. Never thought I'd see the day. And so we go our own way. Can we walk?...this floor is hurting my knees. We'll get lost and talk of better days. Broken glass...climb...scratch the trees. No better way to say our names. Until we crawl against it all, we fight, we fall, so proud so small. And now I know how much we've grown and how much you've meant to me. And I ask...why me? Lucky, my luck seems to be. You and me..we will be. Forever. My earth, my wings...my sea.
You know you're a lucky man
Fortune has smiled again
You're still walking the planet
You know you're the lucky one
You should have been done by now
But somehow you've managed
And lucky don't stay
And lucky don't stop
Or call to say hey
And lucky don't turn around
And lucky don't check his messages
Lucky just checks his watch
And heads for the exit
You know you're the lucky one
Luckier than most
You're still walking the planet
You know you're the luckiest
Your memories and ghosts
Are painting over the damage
And lucky don't fade away
And lucky don't turn around
When you say hey
Lucky don't stop at all
Lucky don't return your calls
Lucky just comes and goes
After all
You know you're a lucky man
Luckier than most
Your memories and ghosts
You know you're the luckiest
Fortune has smiled again
You're still walking the planet
You know you're the lucky one
You should have been done by now
I'm walking down this empty hall of photographs
I push my nose up to the ones I love
The long walk home to where I rest my weary head
I feel as if I'm happy in my cause
Funny me what was I thinking
Life is about to start
Cause I am
Lucky to be here
Yes I am lucky to care
Yes I am lucky to listen
And I am what I am
And your never gonna change me
I am what I am I am
But I do what I can
Oh yeah I do what I can
I rest my head between dissonance and harmony
I feel as if I've changed but stayed the same
The long walk home to where I rest my weary head
I feel as if I'm happy in my game
Funny me what was I thinking
Life is about to start
Cause I am
Lucky to be here
Yes I am lucky to care
Yes I am lucky to listen
And I am what I am
And your never gonna change me
I am what I am I am
And if I choose to lose my head
after all those foolish things that you said
I would never make it on my
on my
Cause I am lucky to be here
Yes I am lucky to care
Yes I am lucky to listen
Yes I am lucky to care
I'm lucky
I'm lucky to care
I'm lucky I'm lucky to care
I'm lucky I'm lucky to care
I'm lucky baby
I'm on a roll,
I'm on a roll this time.
I feel my luck could change.
Kill me sarah,
kill me again with love.
It's gonna be a glorious day.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
pull me out of the lake,
'cause I'm your superhero.
We are standing on the edge.
The head of state
has called for me by name
but I don't have time for him.
It's gonna be a glorious day!
I feel my luck could change.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
pull me out of the lake,
'cause I'm your superhero.
We are standing on the edge.
I'm on a roll,

I feel my luck could change.
Kill me Sarah,
Kill me again with love,
It's gonna be a glorious day.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
We are standing on the edge.
The head of state has sent for me by name,
But I don't have time for him.
It's gonna be a glorious day!
I feel my luck could change.
Pull me out of the aircrash,
Pull me out of the lake,
I'm your superhero,
We are standing on the edge.

Jammin' Salmon Music
I have a bowl of fruit
A sink that rarely leaks
When I breathe I fill my lungs with air that's sweet
I have a soft bed
A closet full of clothes
When I step outside it's on soil where grass can grow
And I have, I have, I have, I have…
Enough
And I need, I need, I need, I need…
Nothing else much, I'm
Lucky—this a lucky life
I see it more and more how
Lucky is a relative state of mind
And as long as I concede
That I've got all that I need
To be satisfied, I'll feel lucky
All my life
I have a friend to call
A sister to worry about me
When I fall, I know someone will help me get back on my feet
And I have, I have, I have, I have, I have…
More than I know
And I need, I need, I need, I need, I need…
Nothing else to show I'm
Lucky—this is a lucky life
I see it more and more how
Lucky is a relative state of mind
And as long as I concede that I've got all that I need to be satisfied
I'll feel lucky all my life.
Sometimes when times when get hard it's hard to believe
Life's not a dry well
But seeing what fades, what lasts, gives me reason to remind myself…
Lucky is a state of mind
My friend, I'm so
Lucky—this is a lucky life
I see it more and more how
Lucky is a relative state of mind
And as long as I concede
That I've got all that I need
To be satisfied, I'll feel lucky
All my life.
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
Laughing through the day
Thinking you are never boring
Speeding through the night
Maybe you not count the morning
There's nothing you can do
To keep it out
There's nothing you can do
Just scream and shout
Living for today but you just can't find tomorrow
Talking 'bout the joy
But it never stops the sorrow
There's nothing you can do
To keep it out
There's nothing you can do
Just scream and shout
Saying
So lucky lucky
So lucky lucky
So lovely lovely
So lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
So lucky lucky
So lucky lucky
So lovely lovely
So lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
Even though you said
It would never end it's over
You were smiling on my arm
Now you're crying on my shoulder
There's nothing you can do
To keep it out
There's nothing you can do
Just scream and shout
Saying
So lucky lucky
So lucky lucky
So lovely lovely
So lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
So lucky lucky
So lucky lucky
So lovely lovely
So lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
You can never be forever
Good together
Young and clever
You can never be forever
But keep it up
Don't ever stop
Through night and day
The words to say are:
So lucky lucky
So lucky lucky
So lovely lovely
So lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
So lucky lucky
So lucky lucky
So lovely lovely
So lovely lovely
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you saying
You can fool yourself
I promise it will help
Now every single day
Maybe I'm a fool
One day we'll know
Maybe I'm a fool
Only time can show
But now these lonely nights are killing me
I'm so far away from reality
The pain grows stronger
I can't hold on much longer
I can still remember
That day in September
The words that set you free.
Lucky! Be a man and try and understand
Lucky! Be a man if you can
Lucky! You know I relly
Really love you so
But Lucky - I still have to go.
Baby can't you see
That tears on my face
Painful memories of a love I can't replace
I'm sailing in the past and I'm sinking fast
You can hear my S.O.S. crying out for tenderness
Though yesterday's dead and gone
Your magic still lingers on
I can still remember that day in September
The words that set you free
Lucky! Be a man and try and understand
Maybe I'm a fool
one day we'll know
Maybe I'm a fool
only time can show
But now these lonely nights are killing me
I'm so far away from reality
The pain grows stronger
I can't hold on much longer
I can still remember
that day in September
The words that set you free.
Lucky! Be a man and try and understand
Lucky! Be a man if you can
Lucky! You know I relly
really love you so
But Lucky - I still have to go.
Baby can't you see
that tears on my face
Painful memories of a love I can't replace
I'm sailing in the past and I'm sinking fast
You can hear my S.O.S. crying out for tenderness
Though yesterday's dead and gone
Your magic still lingers on
I can still remember that day in September
The words that set you free
Lucky! Be a man and try and understand
Happiness feels like this, your heart upon your sleeve
There's a place in time and space where we can all be
free
So meet me at the rainbow's end
We don't even have to pretend
that we know what it is we're looking for
we're looking for
Life is just a dream
Lucky you, lucky, lucky me
Have you found higher ground or are you lost at sea?
Do you know where you know
where you go is where I want to be?
So cast your troubles into the sky
They can be the stars in our eyes
and we can count them all another day
From far away
Life is just a dream

Verse I
Here I sit, at the terminal
Messing with life like it's just another funeral
Don't know why I'm thinking of you
All I know is who:
Chorus
Who goes pretty wild all the time,
Who goes down for a dime,
Who does this, who does that
Who does more than just chat
Oh, you're so lucky, so damn very lucky
Wish I was as lucky as you
But I ain't
Verse II
Laying by the road, on the pavement
Not allowed to move, by the inebriants enslavement
You're wasted but you disapprove, that your knees are bent
And you almost realise who:
Chorus
Who goes pretty wild all the time,
Who goes down for a dime,
Who does this, who does that
Who does more than just chat
Oh, you're so lucky, so damn very lucky
Wish I was as lucky as you
But I ain't
Verse III
Standing beside your bed, listening to the electrocardiography
Hoping you're not dead, hoping this is not what it was meant to be
Trying to reassure you, that you're gonna get trough
Then I think you would realise who:
Chrous II
Who went wild all the time,
Who went down, even for a dime
Who did this, who did that
"we livin'"
(Lucky)
ITS 187!!
(Bishop)
its tha R-I-P to tha T wit tha Lucky
(Bishop)

popin' mugs

Well I gotta call you lucky
Cause all I can think about
Is what to do with all of your charms.
Well I know you think it's not enough
But I could never give it up
Since I had the lovin' you show
Well I place my bet no matter the line
Well I pick a winner every time
Well lucky always gets me home
Yeahh with lucky near I cant go wrong
Well I gotta call you lucky
Cause all I can think about

Well I know you think it's not enough
But I could never give it up
Since I've had a taste of your wine.
Yeahh Well I place my bet no matter the line
And I pick a winner every time
Well lucky always gets me stoned

You say you are, never gonna leave me.
Like a child, you will always help me
Through the storms, I like the way
You stand by me.
I know I'm lucky
Wonder when, wonder when you saw me
Crying tears, certainly it's been a
Couple years, the brighter side of life has shone
That I'm not wrong
That everything I thought I
Would have to do to do right
Is never gonna be what it was planned to be, coz I'm lucky
The days are shining happy
The pain forever missing
From when I wake, throughout the day
A lasting smile upon my face
Lucky I'm lucky and I hope I'll always be
Lucky all my life so nobody
Will ever need to worry about me
I'm living free
Lucky star, I know it's shining somewhere
In the sky high above in thin air
Watching down, to ensure that I'm all right
I feel at peace
That everything I thought I
Would have to do to do right
Is never gonna be what it was planned to be, coz I'm lucky
The days are shining happy
The pain forever missing
From when I wake, throughout the day
What the hell am I supposed to say
WHen the finish turns to shit
Black and yellow bothers me
Won't accept my energy
Every time
We get together
Nothing but
Selfish bastards
Tiptoe
Tiptoe (Shut my mouth)
Tiptoe
Tiptoe (Shut my mouth)
Tiptoe
Tiptoe (Shut my mouth)
Tiptoe
Tiptoe (Shut my mouth)
Timmy has gotten scared
Never visits never cared
Everyone's got there own plans
No one changes no one can
Every time
We get together
Nothing but
Selfish bastards
Tiptoe
Tiptoe (Shut my mouth)
Tiptoe
Tiptoe (Shut my mouth)
Tiptoe
Tiptoe (Shut my mouth)
Tiptoe
Tiptoe (Shut my mouth)
Every time
We get together
Nothing but
Selfish bastards
Something told me it wasn't the one for me
But someday, I'll be lucky
Someday I'll be as lucky as the next girl
Some way, I know love will fill my heart
And I'll stay this way
Until the day that love comes again
I've dreamed all my life for Mr. Right
But Mr. Wrong always seems to come along
So I try to keep myself strong
Here I am again standing on my own
Each and every night, I pray
Someday I'll be as lucky as the next girl
Some way, I know love will fill my heart
And I'll stay this way
Until the day that love comes again, ooh-ooh
Maybe I'm asking for a miracle
For sure some things are just not meant to be
When it comes to somebody loving me
(Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh)
But I know I was meant to be happy
So I wait patiently
It's just that right now
(Aah-aah-aah-aah)
Love has turned its back on me
Every good dog has her day
Ee-hee-hee-hee-hee
Someday I'll be as lucky as the next girl
Some way, I know love will fill my heart
And I'll stay this way
Until the day that love comes again
Oh-oh-oh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
I never believed in rainbows
I wanted someone to hold me
I'll gladly go to the end of the rainbow
If he's there waiting for me
I'll stay this way
Until the day that love comes again
I'm tired of being alone
(Lucky, someday)
One day, I'm gonna have a happy home
Somebody's watching over me
(Lucky, someday)
One day, I'll be lucky
(Lucky, someday)
Lucky, lucky, lucky
(Lucky, someday)
Lucky, ooh-hoo, yeah, oh
(Lucky, someday)
(Lucky, someday)
il parait que je n'etait pas faite pour duree
Qu'après un première album ou allait m'oubliee
je ne rentre pas vos normes desole (hey)
Si ta parie sur ma chute tu es pardonne
Quoi qu'ils disent, quoi qu'ils pensent, quoi qu'il face, je suis ma
destinee
J'ai toujours eu la force et la foi pourquoi abandonne ?
Refrain :
Lucky ma voix raisonne, au milieu des cour d'ecoles, en haut des bloque, au
pied des halls
Raisonne ma voix raisonne sur les ondes je fredonne
Je ne fait que chante, chante, chante
je me dois d'avance me depasse
Meme si je suis tombe, tombe, tombe
Rien ne peux me stopper alors on fredonne
Tililiramdamdamtililidam X3
Il parait que je n'etait pas prete pour brille
que les strasses et les paillettes allait tout change
Mais mon âme n'ai pas a vendre desole (desole)
Je fais ce que bon me semble sans me retourne
et peut importe si il disent que j'avance sans savoir ou je vais
ils ecoutent ma musique mes paroles à jamais sont grave
Refrain :

Refrain :

I wanna’ stay here
But I ain’t worthy
You are too descent
To understand
For when I see him
He hypnotize me
When he takes hold of me
With his hot hands
Someday I know he’s coming back
To call me
He’s gonna’ handle me
And hold me so
It’s gonna’ be like dyin’
Porgy, deep inside me
But when he calls
I know I have to go
I loves ya, Porgy,
Don’t let him take me
Don’t let him handle me
And drive me mad
If you can keep me
I wanna’ stay here with you forever
And I’ll be glad
Someday he’s comin’ back
To call me
He’s gonna’ handle me
And hold me so
It’s gonna’ be like dyin’
Porgy, deep inside me
But when he calls
I know I have to go
I loves you, Porgy,
Don’t let him take me
Don’t let him handle me
With his hot hands
If you can keep me
I wanna’ stay here with you forever
I’ve got my man!
(What do you want to do?
Dunno know really, live I suppose, see what happens)
Nothing through the day
Thinking you are never boring
Speeding through the night
Maybe you don't come 'til morning
There's nothing you can do to keep it out
There's nothing you can do to scream and shout
Living for today, but you just can't find tomorrow
Talking about the joy, but it never stops the sorrow
There's nothing you can do to keep it out
There's nothing you can do to scream and shout
Saying: Lucky lucky, so lucky lucky
So lovely lovely, so lovely lovely
You can prove yourself
I promised to the world
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you say
Even though you said it would never end it's over
You were smiling on my arm, now you're crying on my shoulder
There's nothing you can do to keep it out
There's nothing you can do to scream and shout
Saying: Lucky lucky, so lucky lucky
So lovely lovely, so lovely lovely
You can prove yourself
I promised to the world
Now every single day
I just wanna hear you say
That you can never be forever
Good together, young and clever
You can never be forever
Keep it up, don't ever stop
Through night and day
The words to say are
Saying: Lucky lucky, so lucky lucky
So lovely lovely, so lovely lovely
You can prove yourself
I promised to the world
Now every single day
Go get a heartAnd give it a home
And delight in all the things that you've become
How does it feel when nothing is real?
To be wrapped up in your ever spinning wheel
You don't know how lucky you are
Don't know how lucky you are
Don't know how lucky you are
Yeah you don't know
You think the way you're livings so hard but it ain't
I'm getting sick and tired of you with no back bone
You don't know how lucky you are
Don't stress it out
Try to relax
Cause the ones that take it easy
Don't fall back
So what do you want?
What do you need?
Can you tell me is it gratitude or greed?
You don't know how lucky you are
Don't know how lucky you are
Don't know how lucky you are
Yeah you don't know
You think the way you're livings so hard but it ain't
I'm getting sick and tired of you with no back bone
You don't know how lucky you are
He's so lucky
She's so lucky
They're so lucky
We're all so lucky
He's so lucky
She's so lucky
They're so lucky
Life is a game
Never the same
I feel so alive
I know that i'm lucky
Is it the place
Where I grew up
The smile of my mom
I know that i'm lucky
Now i'm willing to share my bliss with you
Are you ready to change your life for good
Oh believe
Your past is not your enemy
Think again cause
It's only getting better than before
before
I had it all
You were alone
Nowhere to go
Yeah I know that i'm lucky
Now you're grown up
No battle is lost
Cause everything will change from now
Oh believe
Your past is not your enemy
Think again cause
It's only getting better
If life is unfair
You know that i'm there
We've reached the point of no return
You're my better half
Just me and yourself
There's nothing you can say to me right now
It's such a blast
This has to last
Has to last
We can fly away
We can die today
Nothing left to say
We'll find our way
Lucky
Your life has just begun
Close your eyes enjoy the sun
yesterday is far away now
so nothing can go wrong
Are you ready to change your life for good?
Lucky
I'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky you left me
i think i'm better off this way
i'm lucky you left me
although i wanted you to stay
i'm lucky you left me
i don't cry a lot at night
i'm lucky you left me
don't worry darling
i'm alright
when first you went away i thought my days and nights were forever gonna suck
but now with just a little time i can see my future brightening up
cause the truth is:
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky you left me
i know i'll never be the same
i'm lucky you left me
i feel a little sorry for what's his name
i'm lucky you left me
because hey, you really were a *bleep*
i'm lucky you left me
and i no longer want to scratch
that itch
now here's the part of the song where you'd expect to find a little irony
about how i'd really much rather have you back... sorry
cause the truth is:
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky
i'm lucky you left me
unfaithful and untrue
i'm lucky you left me
every day i forget a little more about you
i'm lucky you left me
i think i'm better off alone
i'm lucky you left me
darling please
don't come home
don't come home
don't come home
don't come home
don't come home.
My beloved sister called me on the phone today
She said, "I hate to be the one to tell you this"
My beloved sister called me on the phone today
She said, "Lucky Dog shot himself in the head today"
My beloved brother called me on the phone today
He said, "I saw them take his body away"
He said, "I found a note next to a rock of speed
It said, give my dog to my folks
Sell my shit, I can't trust anyone, goodbye"
Got me to thinking how we used to drive around
Listen to NWA and steal people's recycle
Got me to thinking how we cut up every door
In the house, burn them up in the fireplace
Got me to thinking how we used to hang out the window
Fish for pigeons and little black girls
Got me to thinking how we used to do dumb shit
And think it was so cool
Hey, kid I hope you know
Sometimes life is gonna suck
Hey, kid I hope you know
Sometimes everything is gonna be fucked up
Hey, kid I hope you know
The only way around your problems is straight through them
Nothing is insurmountable, nothing is undo able
