Unfortunate Thing - Culture Club

Breaking out of school

Ain’t really fooling no one

I was sure I’d get my reward in time

Backing up the street

With the smell of sweet sensation

Didn’t want to be another dime

Hidden in the pocket

Of some unfortunate nation

Didn’t have no money, sure didn’t have the time

Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing

Unfortunate thing, such an unfortunate thing

But I fought with nothing

But I fought with nothing

Laughing at the rumor

That you’ve been screwing someone

Laugh better cry

It could be your turn next time

Brother what a lover beyond the fourth dimesion

He’s got an ego

That’s bigger than yours and mine

Don’t call me Bwana

Let it settle in your heart

We move from children

Into a business counterpart

Your head was shaking as I walked into the room

A spirit breaking

That’s why I feel this way

Breaking out of school

Ain’t really fooling no one

I was sure I’d get my reward in time

Backing up a street

With a smell of sweet sensation

Didn’t want to be another dime
