Lyrics: Sarah Slean. Day One. Lucky Me.


Science wears a new suit
To his coffee, toast and eggs
But he has to skip the stairs now
'Cause of two broken legs
Whine, whine, "I cannot climb"
Every time?s the same
I?d be more inclined to help him
If he could remember my name

And you're sad, And you're sorry.
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
This is your chance
Be ready.
I?m taking my seat
O Lucky Me

Faith can?t fill the dance hall
'Cause her powers have declined
But at the beauty pageant
She will always take the prize.
Light, light. Easter White
Roll her in the dirt,
When it comes time for kneeling she?ll say " You go first."

And you're sad, And you're sorry.
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
This is your chance
Be ready.
I?m taking my seat
O Lucky Me

A wise man once tried to tell me
How to sugar-coat the grave
But the game is for the adults
And I don?t know how to play
O where will I go?
Toss me out to sea
When the jar?s all out of candy
don?t come blaming me.

And you're sad, And you're sorry.
Well let it all out.
What are you running for?
Tell the whole world!
We're waiting.
I?m taking my seat
O Lucky Me
