The Best Bad Luck


I'd rather pushcarts in the hot sun
And get paid
Than watch you get drunk
And stumble all over the place.
Of course I'm ashamed.
How could I not-be?
That stuff is so lame,
Why can't you see?
I wish I never came.
It hurts you don't know who I am,
And that's a first since camp.
Baby, look into my eyes
Before I realize
That you're not the one for me
And I can't quite see
Across the country
And I'll trust you if you trust me.
I can't seem to let you go
I probably don't want to know
What you're doing right now
Especially if you're downtown.
I'll wine and dine you and make you mine,
Then I'll toss you to the end of the line,
Then I'll write about it and then I'll rhythm,
Then I'll come crawling back one last time.

You're the best bad luck that I ever had.
You're so bad.

It was way back when
When we thought the world would end,
Although we all know; it's about to explode.
I was headed for the border
No money no passport.
Black Impala
Headed for Guatemala.
Stuck-in Tucson just waiting for a ride,
Baking in the sun as the all drive-by.
Stuck in Arizona, going back to California,
Going to slab city to my little huckleberry.
I traveled from Seattle
All the way to the big apple.
Washington state, cascades,
And then the Catskills.
I'd say "I've won the battle."
Button up your flannel,
Tighten-up your saddle,
'Cause I'm headed for the Eiffel.
I'm doing my rounds again,
Living in the mountains,
High elevation
And I also like islands.
Please & thank you
And I'm sorry for my babbling.
And I feel better than I've ever been.
Because I had all of my ducks in a row from front-to-back
But I made the mistake of counting them before they hatched.
I want to sing and I want to rap.
The missing link is the monkey on my back.
I know what you want, they all want love.
I'll get you what you want if you don't get me out in bump.
Mix-up meal, what table you be chilling at?
You're the best bad luck that I've ever had
