Murphy's Law
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I feel my story's still untold
But I'll make my own happy ending
I guess I'd rather be alone
Than make and do amending
I feel maybe I've outgrown this old town
I see you almost every day
And every time I turn around
Our love is stuck on replay
(Replay, replay, replay, replay)
Every since we broke up
I've been afraid to go out
But I won't be a prisoner
Locked up in this house
I feel my story's still untold
But I'll make my own happy ending
But I'd rather be alone
Than make and do amending
Have I outgrown this old town?
I see you almost every day
And every time I turn around
Our love is stuck on replay
It's Murphy's law, I'm gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin' alright
All my hard work goes down the drain
And Murphy's law, I'm gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin' alright
Murphy's law gonna strike again
It's gonna strike again
It's gonna strike again
What have I got to lose?
I'm so tired of complaining
Pretty soon I'll be breaking loose
And the feeling will be changing
Now I'm back on my feet
Ain't looking over my shoulder
But if I put a foot wrong
Yeah, I'll be goin' away
When we talk, it gets around
There's other people's feelings
To think about, not just you and me
The small town reality
It's Murphy's law, I'm gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin' alright
All my hard work goes down the drain
And Murphy's law, I'm gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin' alright
Murphy's law gonna strike again
It's gonna strike again
It's gonna strike again
It's gonna strike again
It's gonna strike again
It's Murphy's law, I'm gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin' alright
All my hard work goes down the drain
And Murphy's law, I'm gonna meet you tonight
Just one match could relight the flame
And just when everything is goin' alright
Murphy's law gonna strike again
All my hard work keeps on goin' down the drain
All my hard work keeps on goin' down the drain
All my hard work keeps on goin' down the drain
All my hard work keeps on goin' down the drain
Murphy's law
Murphy's law
(Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on) Murphy's law
(Keep on, keep on)
(Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on) Murphy's law
(Keep on, keep on)
(Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on
Keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on, keep on)
