Lyrics
Lucky
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.
Freedom is difficult to gain
And even then difficult to keep
They think you're going astray
And send the dogs to round you up like sheep
One famous pirate was told
As his trial came to the end
"You wouldn't die like a dog
If you had fought like a man"
Maybe I'm lucky
Or maybe I'm lucky
In another way
As fate has been good enough to me
The biggest treasure
That I could ever find
Is just enough happiness for me
Skeletons in the iron cages
Hanging from the execution docks
Never deter their brethren
A pack doesn't turn into a flock
Judges in powdered wigs
Always declare they're right
But I'm somehow unconvinced
Strike their gavels as they might
Maybe I'm lucky
Or maybe I'm lucky
In another way
As fate has been good enough to me
The biggest treasure
That I could ever find
Is just enough happiness for me
Treasure may lie under the X
But you have to get there somehow
Carefully selecting your path
Trying to account for the unknown
There's no time to lose
If you've got anything to gain
Dreams have nothing to prove
They just come to you to entertain
Maybe I'm lucky
Or maybe I'm lucky
In another way
As fate has been good enough to me
The biggest treasure
That I could ever find
Is just enough happiness for me
