Lyrics The Lucky Ones - The Crookes

The Lucky Ones

Come, come, here come the lucky ones
Marching powder and champagne
Dripping desire, hidden behind warpaint
And they’re like mannequins, they’re all dressed the same
I guess we better look alive or else acquire the taste
Oh come on
Don’t ya wanna be a lucky one?
It goes on and on, like staring at the sun
Do you wanna be a lucky one?
Come, come, here come the frenzy
If I see glitter it must be gold
Pouring around me, teasing my self-control
Oh what a wonderful world, but it’s so hard to speak
I keep fumbling my words 'cos my tongue’s in my cheek
Oh come on
Don’t you wanna be a lucky one?
It goes on and on, like staring at the sun
Do you wanna be a lucky one?
Oh come on
Don’t you wanna be a lucky one?
It goes on and on, like staring at the sun
Do you wanna be a lucky one?
My eyes on your mouth
As warm breath is spilling out
And that life you dreamt about
Chewed you up, spat you out
And the nights are so absurd
And the days are all so blurred
I need help;
I need her
Truth spills out in a slur
As we’re walking out back, with the glass
Lotteries and loaded guns, honey look at what you could’ve won
We’re dancing with the lucky ones
Place your bets let’s go all in, honey look at what you could’ve been
We’re dancing with the lucky ones
Oh come on, come on, don’t ya wanna be a lucky one?
It goes on and on, like staring at the sun
Do you wanna be a lucky one?
