Got an email at 22
Told me I could be a star
On a plane for the first time
I couldn't wait to start
Landed at JFK
Father Christmas picked me up
Checked in to a dream hotel and I thought
"There's no such thing as luck"
I walked in to my interview
And I thought "There's no such thing as luck"
And oh, if I only knew then what 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
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 all right
Let me fly and follow my dreams"
Then 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"
Dinner under a palm tree
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"
And oh, if I only knew then what 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
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 spin doctor but thanks for the offer
And by the way
Hey thanks for the weekend
You know I had a ball"
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
I laughed when I got back home and I thought
"There's no such thing as luck"

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
