Hey, Robin!  Thanks for sharing.  Funny- really liked the line about the black cat and the ladder.  Good stuff.  It’s silly, but it’s fun. 

Please pay it forward by leaving a comment on another writer’s song.  Thanks!

Bummer



I went down to my local bank to see if they could help
But the manager just laughed and threw me out
To top it all my old lady stalked Justin Bieber all summer
..............................bummer

I got to get a new set of friends acquaintances real soon
They ‘re just not cool or hip or in the loop
My best friend's favourite movie is Dumb and Dumber
.........................bummer

Chorus

I’ve always had bad luck, it makes me mad and madder
If a black cat sees me, it’ll cross the street and walk under a ladder


Verse

My Bel Air mansion’s needing a brand new coat of paint
My model girlfriend’s shooting out of town
My E type Jag's just been tailgated by a hummer
.................................bummer

In the 70’s I was more than a mean guitarist
But I blew the chance to be in a punk band
The group in question was led by one Joe Strummer
............bummer

At weekends I like to chill and hang around the house
I also like to go and walk the dog
But my papillon always wants to take on all comers
..........................bummer

My daughter had a boyfriend, he was a millionaire
My future was so rosy, we were friends
But she dumped him for another guy, he was just a plumber
………………………….bummer
