lyrics

Oh, Ms. Fortune and her mate have finally set the date
They’re breaking hearts around the world
Telling us no, now we’ve got no place to go
And our feelings don’t matter at all
I should have kept up the wall
And now Ms. Fortune is cycling through my mind
Like a ring on a finger
Ms. Fortune, as you know,
Of all I loved, I loved you most
Now the door has closed for you and me
I’m getting sick and tired as I repeat myself again
In what I hope is my last song to you
What a waste of time!
While I forget you you’re walking down the aisle
With a ring on your finger
Ms. Fortune disregard. The things I say are said in hurt
But don’t expect me to wish you well
I don’t know what you see in him
That wasn’t already in me
Now here I am wasting my breath
My dreams are cruel and cold
Because you chose him, your mate’s wrapped around you
The ring’s on your finger
Oh, Ms. Fortune
Oh, Ms. Fortune

The Enigmatic Foe Knoxville, Tennessee

With sharp lyrics, the playful pop bite of the best of the 70s and 80s, and the kind of self-deprecation usually reserved for a Woody Allen movie, Jared Colinger's lyrics run the gamut from the joy of new love to disillusionment with the old, from wanting to like yourself to being afraid of what we have in our minds.
