Good Luck
Counting Crows Lyrics

Larry's in Vegas,
Larry is in Las Vegas,

With some chick from LA,
He's with a girl from Los Angeles who is a stranger to him,

The best things are sevens,
He finds seven to be the luckiest number and the best outcome,

And sex is just okay,
Although he's having sexual relations with her, it doesn't mean much to him,

So please stay,
She wants him to stay with her,

She said just stay.
She directly tells Larry to stay with her.

'Cause there's a show at 11,
There's an event happening at 11 o'clock,

And the drinks are all free,
The drinks are complimentary,

Maybe you can do better for yourself but not me,
Maybe Larry could find something better to do, but she can't.

So please stay, keep me company.
She wants Larry to stay with her and give her company.

All the while thinking this is the good luck,
She believes that their current situation is lucky,

Stays with her most of the time,
She often thinks and feels this way about her luck,

It takes time to make these machines work,
It's difficult and takes time to get what she wants,

But people are so unkind,
However, people can be cruel,

Gets kinda nervous,
She starts to feel anxious,

Where it used to be hard.
Whereas things used to be difficult for her.

She takes the edges off evenings in bedrooms,
She uses sex to take away the stress of her days,

And back seats in big cars,
Also in the back seats of big fancy cars,

She looks in the mirror,
She examines herself in the mirror,

To make sure she's here,
To make sure that she exists and does not disappear,

She keeps disappearing and dreaming,
She often feels like she doesn't exist and daydreams often,

Of movie stars weddings,
She fantasizes about getting married to movie stars,

And nothing is happening,
However, nothing in her life is happening,

He tries not to notice,
Larry tries not to pay attention to her,

She thinks he doesn't care,
She believes that he doesn't love her or care about her,

You capture yourself in a jar,
You trap yourself and your feelings in a contained environment,

And you stay there until you vanish,
You stay there with your trapped feelings until you disappear,

Thin air.
You vanish into thin air.

But he ain't got time while,
Larry doesn't have much time on his hands,

She's riding in black cars and pokes at the sky,
She goes around in fancy cars and looks at the sky,

To see if he can make stars and,
She hopes that Larry could make stars and bring her luck,

People are so unkind,
However, people can be very cruel and unkind.

People are so unkind,
People can be cruel and unkind (repeated).

People are so unkind,
People can be cruel and unkind (repeated).

People are so unkind,
People can be cruel and unkind (repeated).

People are so unkind,
People can be cruel and unkind (repeated).

People are so unkind.
People can be cruel and unkind (last repeated line).
