Seven Mary Three - Lucky Lyrics






Mean Mr. Mustard says he's bored of life in The District.
Can't afford the French Quarter high, says it gets old real quick and he pales up next to me scrawled on the pavement
It says: Son, time is all the Luck you need.

And if I stay Lucky then my tongue will stay tied, and I won't betray the things that I hide.
There's not enough years underneath this belt, for me to admit the way that I felt.

Mean Mr. Mustard says don't be the wave that crashes
From a sea of discontent, he says he's wrestled with that blanket...
It leaves you cold and wet any way you stretch it
Divine apathy! Disease of my youth
watch that you don't catch it.

  11. C.... A....

    Overcame a severe wreck to come back and walk again almost a year later at 19 years old , lost a kidney and almost lost my eye, saved it thank god! Broke every rib but one on left side, But after 17 years of a deep dark addiction and bad choices after, I chose to live again, have a beautiful family and kids who love me, this song is one of many that got me through and helped me come clean , feel the emotions it's OK

    So true. Amazing what a difference it is

  16. A.... C....

    Very underrated song.

    I searched for this song since I was a teenager . Heard it o the radio and recorded it on a cassette tape ( that was taped over with scotch tape, if you were born by the early 80s you know lol) . One of the best and unknown songs of all time

    Guess I'm lucky, to have lived right down the street from these guys

  19. k.... l....

    1997....takes me back to the year I graduated high school... this song still evokes something inside of me now just as it did then.... beautiful

    k.... l....

    Very few songs really talk to my soul. This is one of those songs. It's so simple, yet it's.... Everything. For a song recorded without every instrument in the studio, it's so powerful.

  20. R.... S....

    This is one extremely underrated band. Good stuff...

  21. C.... K....

    I'm so glad I grew up with a rock and roll mother she was a widow whom raised 5 kids by herself I now understand the feelings she had with this song on repeat I'm a widow now been one for 2 years thanks Mom for teaching me these great songs this hits me hard 😪😪😪😪😪

  22. D.... S....

    I'm so glad I grew up when I did and had a true appreciation for the music that was gifted to me in my time.

  23. A.... D....

    My right ear......

  24. S.... ....

    "It says son...
    Time is all the luck you need"

  25. B.... S....

    I love this song it really is my kinda of style

  26. S.... J....

    Wow loved this band

  28. D.... M....

    awesome love it

  29. M.... V....

    I can remember the very first time I heard this. I can pull up the feeling that went with it. Its' so me that it hurts.

  30. D.... G....

    One of the greats..👌💯

  31. T.... D....

    'And I'm the wave that crashes, from a sea that turns itself' Pure poetry.

  32. F.... F....

    Who is the singer please awesome lyrics are magical

    F.... F....

    Cirby Lonsdale his name is Jason Ross.

    F.... F....

    thank you

  33. R.... C....

    So true. SMT really rocks. Hammer and Stone is one of my favorites.

  34. B.... A....

    seven Mary three most underrated band ever

  35. e.... O....

    love this what its about not really sure drugs life love

  36. p.... p....

    Great Song!!! Brings me back

  37. Z.... R....

    IS this the same singer who did Cumbersome?

  38. J.... B....

    I've always loved this band, I saw them in 97, and it was an amazing show! One of the best bands, from the 90's! IMO

  39. J.... H....

    Love this band. Great lyrics and great music. Deep stuff unlike most of today's music, where you have to dig through a lot of commercial crap, even on alternative radio

  40. J.... H....

    My favorite! <3

  41. B.... ....

    unreal how few views this insanely great song has - crushes any of the bullshit put out these days!

    B.... ....

    This one crushes most of the older music too! I had it recorded on a cassette tape and about 20 years later I found it on YouTube.I heard it one time and it resonated, should've been a bigger hit!It was stuck in my head throughout that time.

  42. J.... C....

    what happened to real lyrical inspirational songs and bands like this that put everything into their on style and didn't conform to make money.come back to us we need real music now more than ever

    J.... C....

    Jonathan Clayton it's the way music is being advertised. Great example is the big rap groups from the 90's and the new ultra breed of solo hip hop pop artists that are more easily manipulated. Also solo artists can be cheaper than say a super group like Led Zeppelin

    J.... C....

    ?????????? GREAT QUESTION!!!

  43. g.... a....

    nice song.

  44. B.... W....

    "If I stay lucky then my tongue will stay tied and I won't betray those things that I hide". WOW!!!! I guess we all have things that we don't want to admit that are eating at us.

    B.... W....

    Brandon Wilson absolutely

    B.... W....

    100%!! Unbelievable Lyrics ♡

  45. j.... m....

    Overcoming obstacles and pain, , this song resonates to those who have suffered from abuse in one fashion or another. Very inspirational work of art and therapeutic as to change the generational cycle

  46. K.... B....

    sehr gut

  47. M.... S....

    Great song that brings back memories of 1995!

  48. D.... W....

    Very powerful message

  49. B.... J....

    Hello mythical beasts!

  50. T.... ....

    Absolutely love this song.

  51. r.... l....

    One of the greatest songs ever written. Listened to Cumbersome as a kid and loved it, heard a buddy J. Carrera play this years later, in my teen years and EVERY person I've ever introduced the song to has loved it. MAKE ANOTHER ALBUM 7M3 !!!

  52. D.... C....

    Through alcohol addiction, and many of issues I have dealt with and conquered this hits home deep in my soul...

    D.... C....

    Well said, sir. "Stay lucky".

    D.... C....

    Donny Cornett heroin addiction here my friend, clean for a year, still going strong, stay strong brother, needles and bottles get old real quick huh?

    D.... C....

    I too struggled with alcohol addiction. Give times like these a listen. It's just as powerful.

  53. s.... ....

    I hadn't thought of this song in legit... at least a  decade.  Today, out of nowhere, it came back to me.  I'm thankful it did.  Now that I'm older, I feel it harder.  Before, I just liked the melody.  Now, I get the words.

    s.... ....

    YES ♡

    s.... ....

    Same!!!

    s.... ....

    Never gets old

    s.... ....

    Exactly

  54. d.... f....

    sad these were igeon held to grunge they are epic

  55. T.... D....

    My brother just played this song last nite. I'm hooked.

  56. j.... n....

    Love this..

  57. E.... S....

    always loved this song! I wish they would get a come back that they deserve!

  58. F.... M....

    grandes recuerdos con esta cancion, I miss you budy....

  59. B.... D....

    This hits home plate .
    Life I lost control of an how when it gets tough you find out just what your made of......

  60. D.... S....

    Man... Jason Ross wrote straight from the pit of his soul didn't he... He could spin gold...

  61. a.... p....

    i listened to this many many times as a teen.  just a good cd.  start to end.

  62. W.... D....

    Divne apathy!!!!  no one caught it before. We fought out of that!!   why are so many young ones catching on to the negative message to this song/!  Do not catch on to the divnive apathy.  he is warning you to not be lethargic and be productive...... just like he was.  Please..... next generation be somewhat productive .  Go out and make your way like you know you can

  63. l.... q....

    How many people can relate to this song?........ This song is awesome live.

  64. m.... ....

    I wanna be the wave that crashes...

  65. j.... m....

    makes me wish that this song didn't describe my life. but its easier to hide it all then to let it all show.

  66. j.... ....

    u took the words right outta my mouth...this song just fits me...

  67. j.... ....

    Calvin Grandaw...u took the words out of my mouth...luv this song

  68. A.... M....

    Man, that's EXACTLY the same for me!

  69. J.... S....

    there's only two major albums i havent gotten and the rest i bought tons of times. hope you all get to check them out, i got the chance to see them twice and i'd of gone to every concert if i could.they're the greatest

  70. m.... ....

    I would argue, this isn't just a 90's ballad. Listen to Seven Mary Three's music, the songs are pure poetry, and have meaning. It's not just put together for the all mighty buck, nor is it another love sick song like most ballads.

  71. m.... ....

    thank you ver much for posting this. It's probably one of my all time favorite songs.

  72. M.... C....

    i wrecked a car with this song playing on the cd player.

  73. R.... S....

    I couldn't have said it better myself, well done!!!!!!!!!! simply awesome!

  74. W.... F....

    Amazing music never gets a dislike. It just goes to show...

  75. D.... M....

    I played this song with a friend for the Senior Talent show in 2000. It is still as great 12 years later.

  76. J.... ....

    Seven Mary Three's best song!

  77. s.... j....

    its the text book ballad from every 90s album ever made , no sense in arguing they all have them, some meaningful slow dance song put on by hardcore rockers

  78. d.... ....

    I am fucking astounded that this has not soundtracked a montage in a major film. Whether it was used ironically or genuinely it would be breathtaking.

  79. C.... C....

    Probably the most under rated song this band recorded.Should have been their biggest hit but clear channel was starting to buy up and close all the alternative and rock stations in late 1997 when this song came out.

    C.... C....

    I thought this was on American standard from 94?

  80. C.... C....

    Huh-uh-uh-uh Huh, he said blanket.

  81. c.... b....

    hell yeah thank you I didn't think there was an album version on YT

  82. C.... G....

    There is something about this song, something real, something meaningful, that, despite it's elusiveness and it's lack of definite relativity to my life, deeply affects me, makes me listen over and over again. I love this song, absolutely love it. That's it, that's what matters.

    C.... G....

    You described my thoughts that I couldn't explain about this song to a tee. The song, for me, is so simple, yet so intricate. It devours...

  83. F.... V....

    Una hermosa y excelente cancion

  84. t.... ....

    let me introduce you to something brand new called, iTunes.

  85. T.... M....

    I appreciate this, It is increasingly hard to track down the music I used to listen to when feeling nostalgic.

  86. M.... ....

    Thanks man. My CD wore out years ago.

  87. A.... S....

    Thank you! My fav from them!
