U. D. O - Bad Luck

I have to tell a story - about a man
Never in the mood - to change his life
Nobody wants to help him - as he spirals down
But one day the wrong decision - hit him overnight

No more cocktail parties - champagne`s run dry
No company take-overs - stock markets high
No more hand-jobs in the boardroom - sex is history
And no saunas, no jacuzzis - the penalties you`ll reap

At last he realized - he did it wrong
Messed big time everywhere - double-dealing lies

He`s going down on his bad luck - his just deserts
He`s going down on his bad luck - what he deserved

His old man told him always - listen son
It`s a two-way street to fortune - you gotta hit and run
Don`t forget the mirror - look who`s behind
And don`t you come up crying - when it`s faster coming down

At last he realized - he did it wrong
Messed big time everywhere - double-dealing lies

He`s going down on his bad luck - his just deserts
He`s going down on his bad luck - what he deserved
He`s going down on his bad luck - it`s his time
He`s going down on his bad luck - can`t rewind

Do you get the story - you know this man
Have you learned a lesson - do you understand
When all you got is crystal - you shouldn`t cast a stone
So be careful when you go up - `cause you`ll meet them coming down

He`s going down on his bad luck - his just deserts
He`s going down on his bad luck - what he deserved
He`s going down on his bad luck - it`s his time
He`s going down on his bad luck - can`t rewind
