Everything Happens To Me - Danilo Perez

I make a date for golf and you can bet your life it rains

I try to give a party and the guy upstairs complains

I guess I’ll go through life just catching cold and missing trains

Everything happens to me

I never miss a thing

I’ve had the measles and the mumps

And every time I play an ace

My partner always trumps

I guess I’m just a fool who never looks before he jumps

Everything happens to me

At first I thought that you could break this jinx for me

That love would turn the trick to end despair

But now I just can’t fool this head that thinks for me

I’ve mortgaged all my castles in the air

I’ve telegraphed and phoned

I send an airmail special too

Your answer was goodbye

And there was even postage due

I fell in love just once

And then it had to be with you

Everything happens to me

Everything happens to me
