Better Luck Next Time Lyrics - Singles - Oingo Boingo

Black is for the nighttime 

Preys upon the day 

Red is for the blood that flows like rivers in our veins 

Gray is for betrayal 

What you did to me 

White is for the blinding light 

That I know I'll never see, know I'll never see 

Found you in the gutter 

You needed tenderness 

I gave you everything I had 

I gave you all my trust 

Handed out so neatly 

Caught me in your trap 

When I needed you the most 

You stab me in the back, stab me in the back 

Better luck, better luck, better luck next time 

If you do it once there'll never be a second time 

Better luck, better luck, better luck next time 

Find somebody else, you're never gonna be mine 

How do you find the nerve 

To lie right to me face 

How do you find the nerve 

Black is for the nighttime 

Preys upon the day 

Red is for the blood that flows like rivers in our veins 

I try and find excuses 

For what you did to me 

Can't forget that burning rage 

When I wake up thinking of your face 

For the blinding swiftness of revenge 

That I know I'll never see, know I'll never see
