LUCKY YOU
Words and Music by Beth Thornley

V1. I don?t want to change you,
much, just a bit.
And as luck would have it just a nip and tuck would make a perfect fit;
low and tight across the hip.
Love has never made me blind.
Ok, it?s never made me kind.
But you didn?t even know there?s more to sweat
than the next cigarette
and now you?re mine.

Chorus: You, lucky you, lucky you, lucky you, lucky
you, lucky you, lucky you, lucky you, lucky you.

V2: You?ve had a good run.
Looks like I?m just in time
to rearrange your mind and I?m inclined
to take down the open sign.
A stitch in time saves nine.
Ok, I don?t know what that means.
But you were stumbling like a blind amputee
so I had to take your key.
All the voices agree. (to chorus)

Bridge: Hey twilight zone your cover?s been blown.
I know where you live and I know your cologne.
I know when you sleep you like to leave the light on
and I know what you think when you think you?re alone.

V3: All that?s left to do now
Is move in and quit my job.
And keep you full of booze and seconal.
After all, when you?re sober you?re no fun at all.
Ok, I know that?s really mean.
But you didn?t even notice it was me
bringing the paradise tree.
All the apples are free. (to chorus)
