Hard Luck

(album: Hypnotised - 1980)

Hey hey hey

You come up to me
Saying that you can't see
Why the whole world thinks you're useless
Saying 'bout a friend
Drives you round the bend
Everything he does is success
Haven't you been told
You will soon be old
It's your life and now it's your mess

Hard luck but you got what you wanted
Hard luck but you got what you wanted to be
Hard luck but you got what you wanted
Hard luck but you got what you wanted to be
Hard luck
Hard luck

He's been working hard
He can run a car
Money gets you girls and he knows
He gets up at eight
You lie on till late
Lying in your bed reading Beanos
If you worked like him
You might not have been
A slob who drinks fucking Venos

Hard luck but you got what you wanted
Hard luck but you got what you wanted to be
Hard luck but you got what you wanted
Hard luck but you got what you wanted to be
Hard luck
Hard luck

Hey hey hey

Hard luck but you got what you wanted
Hard luck but you got what you wanted to be
Hard luck but you got what you wanted
Hard luck but you got what you wanted to be
