Why do I always have to learn the hard way? My life's been just a gamble with no ace in the hand My girl, I've constantly cheated on And I know that I care for her now she's gone away Why does life always have to be a bad surprise? It's ever been but a raffle when you win the shittiest prize Yeah my pockets, filled up with hope Yes I did live on hope, until I found myself flat broke Because you know I am I am the bad luck man And no one can understand I am the bad luck Why do I always have to come this way to the truth? It is painful and it slightly tended to fuck up my youth Yeah my old man, I've never spoken to Turned out to be a good bloke before he tried to murder me too Why did I have to go that far to understand? It's a hard time when you're told that you're about to reach the end Since my tender age, my way of life was acting tough Always drinking and smoking and now I am dead enough To realise that I was I was the bad luck man That no one can understand I was the bad luck?
