  • Better Luck Next Time - Another fan favourite rare song. It was recorded for Nothing To Fear and has that awesome sound of the album. The track was dropped and surfaced on the soundtrack to the movie Last American Virgin instead.
    Reuploaded from a better vinyl source, thanks to various sources who donated. Not perfect but clearer in the challenging loud chorus.

    LYRICS:-
    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
    Planned it 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, you’ll never do it a second time
    Better luck, better luck
    Better luck next time
    Find somebody else, you're never gonna be mine
    How did you find the nerve
    To lie right to my 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 sweetness of revenge
    That I know I'll never see
    Know I'll never see
    Better luck, better luck
    Better luck next time
    If you do it once, you’ll never do it a second time
    Better luck, better luck
    Better luck next time
    Find somebody else, you're never gonna be mine
    Better luck, better luck
    Better luck next time
    How did you find the nerve
    To lie right to my face?
    How did you find the nerve?
    Better luck, better luck
    Better luck next time

  • @thebrainwalker.
    @thebrainwalker. Рік тому +17

    I’m gonna guess the reason this song wasn’t included on the album is because of “Running on a Treadmill.” I personally find both of these songs to have similar style. So maybe there was a point in time where they were choosing between “Better Luck Next Time” and “Running on a Treadmill” and went with the ladder. Again, this is just a guess.

    • @OingoBoingoTapes
      @OingoBoingoTapes  Рік тому +14

      I have a feeling Running On a Treadmill was written quickly to fill in when this song was cut. There may have been some obscure reason like if Danny was commissioned for an original song for the movie it was used in, but didnt have time to produce one so sold this instead. It was definitely planned to be on the album late game

    This song was in the TV ad for The Last American Virgin and the only reason I went to see that movie. I hated it. Seeing it as an middle- aged man, the downbeat ending seems a lot more realistic. Still a shit movie though. Not a likeable or sympathetic character to be found.
