My Lucky Pants Failed Me Again - Tom Rosenthal

Touch wood

Thank my lucky stars

Kiss the new born babe

Today the flowers leap from the vase

Swerving round ladders

Not stepping on the cracks

The sheep will cheer me on with their baas

Magpies

Give me two for joy

I won’t need a ploy

Today this big boy takes the prize

I’ve got clover with four leaves

It’s my time to achieve

You can see victory in my eyes

But sometimes the demise

Sometimes the world lies

My hopes down the drain

My lucky pants failed me again

Black cats

They won’t cross my path

I will do this my love

I’ll high five the neighbours as I go

Seize the bull by the horns

Give me fortune in all forms

The greatest day the world will ever know

I’m a charm

Like a lovely Genghis Khan

I’ll spread it near and far

They’ll say all the smiles descend from me

Touch my elbow if you can

If you’re happy hold my hand

I’m the greatest optimist in the sea

But sometimes the demise

Sometimes the world lies

My hopes down the drain

My lucky pants failed me again

Lucky pants failed me again

Lucky pants failed me again

Lucky pants failed me
