Hard Luck Story Number 39 Lyrics - Television Personalities

It happened all so quickly 

I was too young 

I had too much 

Before I'd even begun 

I touched the glittering prizes 

I had them in my hand 

But when I turned it down 

You didn't understand 

But I'm feeling much better now 

I've only just begun 

And soon I know my day will come 

Don't get me wrong 

It's not a hard luck story number 39 

Just to hear my song on the radio 

Was all I ever hoped 

Soon realised, I couldn't cope 

You can keep your hits 

And your silver discs 

I'll stick two fingers to fame 

Don't cry for me 

It's not a shame 

It's not a hard luck story number 39
