Better Lucky Than Good

[Author's Note: These are song lyrics.] Thinkin' of breakin' A habit or two Thinkin' about bein' better for you Thinkin' of great things Instant and true But thinkin's about all I know how to do When I'm so new at this Growin' old When nothin's for certain Nothin's too bold If I change my body Will it change my mind? If I'm kind to Fortune Will She be, in kind? Hopin' for money Time so it pays Hopin' to start realignin' my ways Hopin' for patrons I can amaze But hopin's about all I'm doin' these days While I'm so new at this Growin' old When nothin's for certain Nothin's too bold To change my body I must change my mind If I'm kind to Fortune She must be, in kind! Talkin' to people Talkin' so slow Talkin' to hide what I don't wanna know Talkin' so high It's makin' me low But talkin's a sign that there's nowhere to go 'Cause I'm still new And it's gettin' old When nothin's forever Nothin's foretold 'Cause if I lose my body And I lose my mind Then I'm tied to Fortune And she ain't too kind © Michal Czechak 2016
