Bad Luck
I have to tell a story – about a man
Never in the mood – to change his life
Nobody wants to help him – as he spirals down
But one day the wrong decision – hit him overnight
No more cocktail parties – champagne's run dry
No company take-overs – stock markets high
No more hand-jobs in the boardroom – sex is history
And no saunas, no jacuzzis – the penalties you'll reap
At last he realized – he did it wrong
Messed big time everywhere – double-dealing lies
He's going down on his bad luck – his just deserts
He's going down on his bad luck – what he deserved
His old man told him always – listen son
It's a two-way street to fortune – you gotta hit and run
Don't forget the mirror – look who's behind
And don't you come up crying – when it's faster coming down
At last he realized – he did it wrong
Messed big time everywhere – double-dealing lies
He's going down on his bad luck – his just deserts
He's going down on his bad luck – what he deserved
He's going down on his bad luck – it's his time
He's going down on his bad luck – can't rewind
Do you get the story – you know this man
Have you learned a lesson – do you understand
When all you got is crystal – you shouldn't cast a stone
So be careful when you go up – 'cause you'll meet them coming down
He's going down on his bad luck – his just deserts
He's going down on his bad luck – what he deserved
He's going down on his bad luck – it's his time
He's going down on his bad luck – can't rewind
