Lucky One - Michael Penn

I’m sending out a call to arms

From the cities to the farms

To the sounding of alarms

With all the bells and whistles

Took my prize, hung my plaque

Pat our big collective back

And then got drunk on Cracker Jack

And emailed my epistle

Well, I must be the lucky one

The luckiest in luckydom

Who reached the moon but wound up numb

Now that I’ve had my fun

Here comes the millennium

Knowing love every day

My baby wants to be that way

But I can’t bring myself to say

How I can’t hope for cryin'

Things got bad, things got worse

I got loaded in a hearse

And all I needed was a nurse

Believe me, I’m not lyin'

Well, I must be the lucky one

The luckiest in luckydom

Who reached the moon but wound up numb

Now that I’ve had my fun

Here comes the millennium

Well, I must be the lucky one

I’m the luckiest in luckydom

Reached the Moon but wound up numb

Well, I must be the lucky one

The luckiest in luckydom

Reached the moon but wound up numb

Let’s call this party done

Here comes the millennium

Such a lucky one, such a lucky one

Such a lucky one, such a lucky one

Such a lucky one, such a lucky one
