I make a date for golf and you can bet your life it rains Try to give a party and the guy upstairs complains Guess I'll go through life just catching colds and missing trains Everything happens to me I never miss a thing, I've had the measles and the mumps Every time I play an ace, my partner always trumps Guess I'm just a fool who never looks before she jumps Everything happens to me At first, I thought that you could break this jinx for me That love could turn the trick to end despair But now I just can't fool this head that thinks for me Mortgaged all my castles in the air I have telegraphed and phoned, sent an air mail special too Your answer was: Goodbye, and there was even postage due Fell in love just once and then it had to be with you 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 Mortgaged all my castles in the air I have telegraphed and phoned, sent an air mail special too Your answer was: Goodbye, and there was even postage due Fell in love just once and then it had to be with you Everything happens to me, for me Everything happens to me
