I had a bad dream and as the night progressed
Traced the silliness I watched it all unfold
Oh dear if there is any truth to this
Somebody wake me and serve up some good white lies

I had a bad dream in which the phone would ring
And drown out everything that kept me on my feet
But down each street so quiet now
I can hear ticking from meters and bombs
When I fall asleep and I climb these four walls
Wake up in the middle of conference calls
That go on forever bout nothing at all

Good luck
Don't you feel so bad
Just don't get your hopes up
Oh there's no reason why

I had a bad dream and as the sun came in
I threw out everything that kept me company
I held my breath to feel alive
The damage is measured against the regrets
Potential of tragedy hangs you by threads
Strike up the banjo and sing as a song

Good luck
Don't you feel so bad
Just don't get your hopes up
Oh there's no reason why

Good luck
Don't you feel so bad
Just don't get your hopes up

Luck whether good or bad
Doesn't come from justice

Good luck
Don't you feel so bad
Just don't get your hopes up
Oh there's no reason why
