Lex Zaleta - Mr. Bad Luck lyrics

While playing Captain Ahab, blacktop whaler, I met Moby Dick in a tractor trailer. He drifted across the double yellow line; I swerved and managed to miss him just in time. I came to a stop hanging off a steep cliff With one question dangling in my mind, "What if?" I took one look in my rearview mirror And let out a shout shrink-wrapped in fear, "Here comes bad luck and his wrecking crew!" He said, "That's Mr. Bad Luck to you!" They told me they wanted some big bucks for bail; I had no choice but to spend the night in jail. I made the most of my time there for a while, Counting every brick and every ceiling tile. I thought to myself, "Things are going quite well. I've got heat and lights and my own private cell." Then I took a larger look around, And I let out a high moaning sound, "Oh, no! Bad luck has found me here too!" He said, "That's Mr. Bad Luck to you!" I didn't know that getting run off the road Was a hanging offense in their penal code, But there I was with my neck inside a noose And there wasn't any way I could break loose. My head snapped forward and hit the steering wheel This hanging was a dream; the accident was real. No pain! I came through it all unhurt. "Not so!" cried the blood that stained my shirt. I screamed, "Curse you d**h; curse bad luck too!" He said, "That's Mr. Bad Luck to you!"
