Walking Under Ladders


Walking Under Ladders

You’re luckier than some
But you’ve lost your charm
And that’s all that was keeping you sane
And under the gun
You pulled the alarm
To stay ahead of the game

So stop hiding from the black cats
They’ll track you down some day
And start walking under ladders
Because karma makes you pay

You’re luckier than some
That horseshoe kept close to heart
And you’re running away, almost too fast
You’re having no fun
So go back to the start
And stop running from your past

So lose that rabbit’s foot
And four-leafed weed
Start walking under ladders
Stop making yourself bleed

That Violin

That Violin That violin’s been playing too long, That boring screechy mournful song, Those diamonds have lost their shine, You’ve lost yours and I’ve lost mine, That fire’s not quite burnt out, It’s all kept safely in your eyes. There’s sparkles all about That shimmer I despise Lies hidden and dies. That violin’s all drained of sound now, The player’s dead and in the ground now, No-one played at his wake, Reputation was at stake. That fire’s not quite burnt out, It’s all kept safely in those eyes, There’s money all about, That greed we all despise, Lies with him and dies. That violin lies unused on the corner of my street, Broken strings and broken heart misses every beat, That 50p I threw in his hat Every day and that was that. That fire’s not quite burnt out, It’s kept safely in those eyes, There’s regret all about, Feelings I despise, Remorse never dies.
