Lyrics

I'm clinging to the top of a tree
Big dogs and black cats are laughing at me
The sky is raging with lightning and thunder
I have a feeling my days are numbered

Throw me a line, my boat sprung a leak
I clutch my flask for a final drink
A smiling shark is circling the bow
With a little luck I'll probably drown

Chorus:
Would you show a little sympathy?
Why has this bad luck befallen me?
My lover says, "Jack, I'll give you a clue
These things happen to no one but you.
Look in the mirror, you'll see the truth.
You've just got, you've just got
You've just got a bad attitude!''

Nine Hail Marys and kiss the ground
My plane's in a spin and I'm goin' down
Inform my lover I'll be runnin' late
Due to my aerodynamic fate

Chorus:
For a thousand years it's been this way
It's in my blood, it's a family trait
My lover says, "Jack, that ain't no excuse
These things happen to no one but you.
Look in the mirror, you'll see the truth.
You've just got, you've just got
You've just got a bad attitude!"

A step from the curb I hear screeching brakes
A woman screams, "Stop!" a second too late
I'm nose to nose with a twelve-ton truck
So much for my odds with Lady Luck

Hey lover, can you spare any luck?
"It ain't luck, it's just your bad attitude!"
Hey Rockefeller, can you spare any luck?
"It ain't luck, it's just your bad attitude!"
Hey stranger, can you spare any luck?
"It ain't luck, it's just your bad attitude!"
