“FRIDAY THE THIRTEENTH” LYRICS:

Saline is dropping like acid rain. My battery’s dying on Saturday. Meter-maid tickets make angry faces. It’s a paper prison in a pickpocket parade. Jump to my bed towards a marshmallow cloud. But land on the floor with a nail through my mouth. Bright lights and white coats and hospital sutures. No health insurance, should have killed me then and there. Superstitions with no reprieve. Shouldn’t have left home On Friday the Thirteenth. Oh my god could it get much worse. Tomorrow came with a much bigger curse. The sky is falling it’s a sure deathwish. Woke up to a colorblind morning. Think I’m going deaf. In this life where there’s no guarantees. Shouldn’t have set foot on Friday the Thirteenth. Thought I’d be smart and prevent a disaster. Take to the stairs and avoid elevators. But what do I know god put workers to work. Who were painting the floor Slipped down 2 flights and that was it. Life on my left, Death on my right. And I’m in between. So I’ll pass it on to the next klutz. On Friday the Thirteenth…
