Lucky Bastards vs. Miserable Worms

life's a bitch, you fall for the wrong people,
give chances when you shouldnt bother
and what makes it harder
is that
you won't see anyone walking around with a sign that says
im an asshole with a personality disorder
cause we all got daddy issues, we all got broken hearted
we all are afraid, hell, and most of us try to hide it
life is full of expensive colors!
but we're living in shades of grey
even standing in line costs
another pale bill to pay
all what i hear is "oh im sorry-hard luck"
who are you?
im the blackest duck
for those who have a black cloud trailing around
memorize ur cards and proof protect your ground
watch ur steps and never expect to land on a muffin
work it around work harder than ever
till you say now its cool, now its better
oh and another a tip or two to have in mind
eat tasteless food to avoid the salt shaker
and never risk holding a mirror, only if you get braver
cut ur left leg off so that u'd never forget to walk with ur right leg first,
and in hard cases
hang an entire horse above ur door, and sticky note urself to tie ur shoe laces
superstitious and extra safe!
still, we are built to fail 'hit and run's
where,
the hopeless trade their souls for 3 thousand knives in one
the miserable trade their kidney to own a gun
then starts the "smoking shit and getting drunk"
that aint the kinda high u'd want

so If you're too busy, don't waste my time
run along and spread the word
its what i've learned
and im sure its something u've always heard
lucky bastards vs. miserable worms
