Lucky 13 Lyrics - Smashing Pumpkins

New in town with a made up name in the angel city 

Chasing fortune and fame 

And the camera flashes, make it look like a dream 

You had it figured out since you were in school 

Everybody loves pretty, everybody loves cool 

So overnight you look like a sixties' queen 

Another name goes up in lights, like diamonds in the sky 

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one 

Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one 

But can you tell me now, you're the lucky one 

Now it's big black cars, and riviera views 

And your lover in the foyer doesn't even know you 

And your secrets end up splashed on the news front page

And they tell you that you're lucky 

But you're so confused 

Cause you don't feel pretty, you just feel used 

And all the young things line up to take your place 

Another name goes up in lights 

You wonder if you'll make it out alive 

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one 

Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one 

Can you tell me now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh 

It was a few years later, I showed up here 

And they still tell the legend of how you disappeared 

How you took the money and your dignity 

And got the hell out 

They say you bought a bunch of land somewhere 

Chose the rose garden over madison square 

And it took some time, but I understand it now 

Photos 

'Cause now my name is up in lights 

But I think you got it right 

Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one 

Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one 

Let me tell you now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh 

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one 

Yeah, they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one 

And they'll tell you now, you're the lucky one, oh, oh, oh 

Oh, whoa, oh, oh
