[Verse 1]
Got an email at 22
Told me I could be a star
On a plane for the first time
I couldn't wait to startLanded at JFK
Father Christmas picked me up
Checked in to a dream hotel
And I thought "There's no such thing as luck"[Pre-Chorus]
I walked in to my interview
And I thought "There's no such thing as luck"
And oh, if I only knew then would I know now
I'd stand like a one man band
And I'd say "All this is new to me, but here's how it's gonna be"
[Chorus]
And I'd say "Hey, there is more to me than meets the eye
Let me be who I wanna be"
And I'd say "Hey, I'm an oddity and that's alright
Let me fly and follow my dreams"And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend
A good time was had by all"
And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend
I ain't a smooth talker but thanks for the Fiji Water"
"Thanks for the Fiji Water"[Verse 2]
Dinner under a palmtree
I had so much on my mind
Amazed by the bright lights
I stayed up half the night
And boy, I took a leap of faith
With nowhere else to go but up
I walked in to my interview
And I thought "There's no such thing as luck"[Pre-Chorus]
And oh, if I only knew then would I know now
I'd stand like a one man band
And I'd say "All this is new to me, but here's how it's gonna be[Chorus]
And I'd say "Hey, there is more to me than meets the eye
Let me be who I wanna be"
And I'd say "Hey, I'm an oddity and that's alright
Let me fly and follow my dreams"And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend
A good time was had by all"
And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend
I ain't a spindoctor but thanks for the offer"And by the way "Hey, thanks for the weekend"
(cause no one does it like you do)
"You know I had a ball"
(it was nice to meet you)
And I'd say "Hey, thanks for the weekend
I ain't a smooth talker but thanks for the Fiji Water"
"Thanks for the Fiji Water"[Outro]
I laughed when I got back home and I thought
"There's no such thing as luck"
