Lucky Me

I don’t understand

This only happens to the other man

And maybe I should build a wall

But with a door and glass bricks

So I can look out to my small world

I’m kinda thinking hypothetical

And denial that ain’t living at all

So lucky me

A unique situation

Parallel inspiration

Invitation to dress in new skin

And though hesitation

Is the cold realisation

In a glass we could be tonic and gin

I’m so not surprised

That my bones are being

Feasted on by butterflies

And in time I’ll be eaten alive

Lucky me

And as the man say

It’s like I’ve called on

John Coltrane and Lady Day

You too can wash my troubles away

Lucky me

Ain’t it strange,

How overnight your life can get rearranged

And your movie moves along

To a different score

There’s no complaints

I know the reservations and jealous I ain’t

I just dig the fact that I can be

Be a piece of a mysterious energy

I think I understand

It’s just the song of a silent man

And it’s me whose gonna sing this verse

About a gypsy girl with a scorpio curse

Who’s walked into my small world

That’s got me hooked like I’m on chemicals

To deny it ain’t living at all

Lucky me

And as Gil Scott say

It’s like I’ve called on

John Coltrane and Lady Day

Like you they wash my troubles away

Lucky me
