BAD LUCK! (Acapella Version)

from A BEGINNER​’​S GUIDE TO LUCK & LIABILITY by Jhariah

/

lyrics

[Verse]
This time around’s no different
I’ve played with chance like you
I loved to toy with fate but oh I didn’t have a clue

[Refrain]
That I would lose
Oh I would lose
Between my left and right, one day I’d have to choose
“You’re not like me, I’m not like you. I’m not who these things happen to “
And that’s exactly what you say before they do

[Verse 2]
I can’t dance like I used to
I don’t have the same moves as you
But that’s okay
Fortune find your way
To someone who needs it much more than me

[Chorus]
Hand in hand
Come human error
And plain bad luck
It seems the timing’s always wrong
For the ones who wait too long
You’ll never catch a break you’ll have to make your own

[Verse 2]
My legs drag behind me
And they creak
In syncopated time
But I know that one day I will lose them too
I didn’t have a clue

[Refrain]
That I would lose
Oh I would lose
Between my left and right, I’d one day have to choose
You’re not like me, I’m not like you. I’m not who these things happen to
And that’s exactly what you say before it catches up to you
Before you play with knives and find yourself in two, you, you, you
You, you, you, you

[Outro]
I finally climbed to heights I
No matter how I try
Can’t descend
Still somehow they’re looking down on me
Laughing cause I got what I deserved
(You got what you deserved)
And I would do it again
I’m not sorry but thank you
For enduring me
As long as you did
That’s more than I’d ever ask of you
