lyrics

HARD LUCK STORY (Lucchesi/Benign)

It's day to day, it's hour to hour
Minute to minute and so on and so forth
Things could change on the double
Here comes trouble
I know it when I see it

Mine's a real hard luck story
Mine's a tale that needs to be told
In all its glory, plated in gold
Mine's a real hard luck story

It isn't crying 'til your friends can taste the tears
It isn't old until you've lost count of the years
It isn't lying if you've never told the truth
And if they're buying keep a close watch on the ticket booth

I've got to say I'm feeling the power
Keep it in play and log all the hours
Things could change
I smell it coming
It's cold and cunning
Every daily drama ends in trauma 'til you monetize it
