Ain’t it just like luck
Trust me to fuck it all up
Things were lining up so well
Then one dumb word sent it all to hell

What can I say?
Such is life
What can I do?
Go to sleep at night
What can I think but

Ain’t it just like life
Soften the jagged edge with light
Square peg in a round world
The ragged shape of a human soul

Is there a time and a place
A kind of saving grace
That shines a light on us all?
Does a divinity shape our end **
Karma make amends
To rise must we sometimes fall?

SOLO

Every creepy thing on earth
In its own way has its worth ***
Every creepy thing that we do
Holds a grain of truth

Is there a time and a place
A kind of saving grace
That shines a light on us all?
Does a divinity shape our end
Karma make amends
To rise must we sometimes fall?
