Hard Luck Champion
Hard Luck Champion: Battling Fate with a Four-Leaf Clover
Lyrics
If I had no bad luck, I'd have no luck at all
Bad luck dominates my life entirely; I rarely experience good luck.
Hangin' by a thread from the edge of the world
I feel precariously close to a major downfall or failure.
Feel I'm about to fall
Sense an impending collapse or failure.
Rain fallin' on the day I was born
Symbolic reference to negative events occurring since birth.
Under a bad sign, shoved into a bind
Placed in adverse circumstances or situations beyond control.
Down, down like a flaming falling star
Falling rapidly and dramatically, similar to a shooting star.
If I had no bad luck, I'd have no luck at all
Emphasizing the dominance of bad luck in life.
Hard luck champion
Being exceptionally unlucky or prone to misfortune.
I got my hands in my pocket
Possibly broke or lacking funds despite having hands in pockets.
But there ain't no money
Financially disadvantaged despite the effort to keep money.
Hard luck champion
Reiteration of being an immensely unlucky individual.
Night prowler, sicker than a dog
Acting stealthily at night while feeling extremely unwell.
Smilin' through a fang smile, rotten to the core
Presenting a false or maliciously deceitful smile, fundamentally corrupt.
Shame, shame, got no middle name
Emphasizing a sense of disgrace or dishonor without a defined identity.
Got me twenty rabbit feet, but still I lose the game
Despite having many supposed lucky items, still facing constant losses.
Hard luck champion
Repeated reference to being remarkably unlucky.
I got my hands in my pocket
Continued lack of money despite having hands in pockets.
But there ain't no money
Reiteration of financial hardship despite efforts to secure funds.
Hard luck champion
Stressing the unfortunate nature of being extremely unlucky.
Like a bee in the hive
Comparing oneself to a bee in a hive without gaining any rewards.
But there ain't no honey
No rewards or benefits despite considerable efforts.
Hard luck
Emphasizing the theme of intense and persistent bad luck.
Hard luck
Reiteration of the theme of unrelenting bad luck.
Hard luck
Continued emphasis on the concept of constant misfortune.
If I had no bad luck, I'd have no luck at all
Reiterating that life seems entirely dominated by bad luck.
Well, there's winners and there's losers
Presenting the duality between winners/losers, good/bad, and making choices.
Sinners and choosers
Describing various types of people based on their choices and actions.
Dirty grins and innocent blues
Illustrating a contrast between cunning and innocence.
Which one are you?
Prompting self-reflection to determine personal alignment with these types.
Damn shame, it seems that we're the same
Expressing disappointment at being similar despite attempts at luck enhancement.
With a four leaf clover and a lucky charm
Having symbols of luck but being unable to escape suffering.
We just can't shake the pain
Continued inability to overcome pain despite symbolic items of luck.
