Losing Streak Lyrics
Was I wrong about the world?
It's a beautiful new place
Where else could a creep like me
Meet such a pretty face?
Meetin' every day with the risin' sun
Lookin' up, it's lookin' like
My losing streak is done
Used to always feel like
Wished that I was dressed better
Never had a lot of luck
Until I finally met her
Feelin' like the weight that weighed a ton
Lifted off my shoulders now
My losing streak is done
Always felt like givin' in
To the feeling, "I can't win"
But I took it on the chin
Now I'm finally cashin' in
Meetin' every day with the risin' sun
Lookin' up, it's lookin' like
My losing streak is done
My losing streak is done
I said my losing streak is done
Did you hear me?
I said my losing streak is done
It's a beautiful new place
Where else could a creep like me
Meet such a pretty face?
Lookin' up, it's lookin' like
My losing streak is done
Wished that I was dressed better
Never had a lot of luck
Until I finally met her
Lifted off my shoulders now
My losing streak is done
To the feeling, "I can't win"
But I took it on the chin
Now I'm finally cashin' in
Lookin' up, it's lookin' like
My losing streak is done
I said my losing streak is done
Did you hear me?
I said my losing streak is done

why no comments? this one is a nice optimistic track, rare thing to have eels sing in a happy mood about happy things :) about a meaning, I think it's pretty simple. after all those losses, E finally feels that the series of bad events is over and a new stage of life is about to begin.
And one year later.... :)
It IS an optimistic track. Maybe no comments because the meaning lies right on the surface.
A great song about unabated hope and happiness.
More than two years on:
This is probably my favorite track from Blinking Lights. Among the most optimistic works E has ever written. It really fits, the album is all about really living. A shame that the incredible difficulty in getting the album published sent him into deep depression again...
Wonderfully upbeat song. Great to listen to when needing a pick-me-up. ^.^
