Lyrics
Just when you think
Despite believing your bad luck has ended
Your losing streaks over
That your run of bad luck has finished
Clouds disappear
Problems vanish
You walk in fields of four leaf clover
You feel incredibly fortunate
The world strikes back
Life responds with adversity
Harder than before
More challenging than previous experiences
Some call it fate
Some attribute it to destiny
Some call it Murphy’s law
Others attribute it to Murphy's law
If I were a Buddhist
Consideration of an alternate belief system
Believing in reincarnation
Belief in cyclic existence
I would say that in an earlier life
Hypothesizing about a past life
I must have been a real bad guy
Self-reflection on being morally flawed previously
And now I’m doomed to damnation
Feeling condemned in current life
With a constant inner strife
Constant internal conflict
Reborn in a proper country
Reincarnated in a strict society
Where they cut a free birds claws
Where freedoms are limited
You won’t find one tree
Nowhere to find freedom
To hang out without breaking any laws
Without violating regulations
Just when you think
Similar situation recurs
Your losing streaks over
Belief that the streak of misfortune has ended
Clouds disappear
Difficulties fade away
You walk in fields of four leaf clover
Feeling extraordinarily lucky
The world strikes back
Life retaliates
Harder than before
More intensely than previously
Some call it fate
Attributed to destiny
Some call it Murphy’s law
Attributed to Murphy's law
So you wanna be an outlaw?
Desire to live rebelliously
Well, you’d better think twice
Cautionary advice about such aspirations
Unless you wanna end up in jail
Consequences of unlawful actions
Even hunting’s not allowed
Even ordinary activities are restricted
And if the supermarkets close you die
Dependence on modern amenities for survival
Of hunger or the cops on your tail
Risk of starvation or law enforcement
You can’t flee to Mexico
Avoiding consequences by fleeing
Like them real outlaws would do
Comparison to legendary outlaws
It’s unreachable
Seemingly unattainable
So you end up finding nowhere to go
No viable escape route
Just when you think
Belief in the end of misfortune
Your losing streaks over
Hopeful period
Clouds disappear
Troubles dissipate
You walk in fields of four leaf clover
Feeling exceptionally fortunate
The world strikes back
Recurrence of adversity in life
