Found a new apartment, the best I have seen
A view of the ocean, on level sixteen
Unloaded my stuff after crossing the town
That was when the elevator broke down
Sitting on a park bench, far from the crowd
Then they come and sit here, start gettin' loud
Why do they bug me? Breathing my air
How long will they be staying there?
Whatever I do there's one thing to ruin my day
Wherever I go, something, I know, stands in my way
I am so unlucky and this the price we pay
We were looking forward to go yesterday
See that brand new movie that's started to play
The guy next to me was on his phone
Texting his girlfriend like he's all alone, all alone
Whatever I do there's one thing to ruin my day
Wherever I go, something, I know, stands in my way
I am so unlucky and this the price we pay
Just wanna stay out in the sun, no one around
It is my way to have some fun, without a sound
Took a great vacation, never been there before
A luxury cabin, close to the shore
There was just one thing that brought us down
A cloud of mosquitoes, flying around, flying around
There's no way out
Whatever I do there's one thing to ruin my day
Wherever I go, something, I know, stands in my way
I am so unlucky and this the price we pay
This is the price we pay
When I retire, deep in a wood
There'll be a forest fire that won't do me no good
