How Come Lyrics - Pogues

How come when I got the ace of hearts 

You always draw the ace of spades 

How's it when your best friend 

Brings you lilies on your birthday 

How come, yeah, how come 

Well, I ain't superstitious but well these things I see 

How come, how come 

I ain't superstitious but it worries me 

How come when your local clergy calls 

He tells me that you shouldn't wear black 

What kind of bread are you going to bake 

With that hemlock in your spice rack 

How come, yeah, how come 

Well, I ain't superstitious but well these things I see 

How come, yeah, how come 

I ain't superstitious but it worries me, yeah 

The spider's run, the cobweb's gone 

Did you eat it when the moon was new? 

I drowned your cat, what do you say about that? 

I've even broken up your broom 

How come, yeah, how come 

Well, I ain't superstitious, but well these things I see 

How come, yeah, how come 

I ain't a superstitious fella but it worries me 

Well, how come, yeah, how come 

Well, I ain't superstitious but these things I see 

How come, yeah, how come 

I ain't a superstitious fella but it worries me 

Well how come, yeah, how come 

Well, I ain't superstitious but these things I see 

How come, yeah, how come 

I ain't a superstitious fella but it worries me
