Tony Banks - Lucky Me

A Curious Feeling Released 8 October 1979 Recorded Spring-Summer 1979 All songs written by Tony Banks Personnel: Tony Banks - keyboards, guitar, bass, percussion Chester Thompson - drums, percussion Kim Beacon - vocals My name is unimportant And my job you could call mean But I like the work and I do it well That's enough for me. I think there was a time when I Could do, and did, much more. I have dreams in which I captain the ship And hear the ocean roar. I've lived alone for all I can remember That only means some six or seven years. I would rather be nobody else, I'm happy as I am. All I need is in my way And you see no one expects too much from me. People cry, but no one asks me to advise them. They want to know but they don't ask me how. That's for someone else and not for me, I don't know. Lucky me. My friends think that I should be trying To find out who I was. But I feel that road would bring me pain And too much would be lost. How I am is how I'm meant to be now, Anyhow there's things I see more clearly Than those whose heads are searching in the clouds to make discoveries, And maybe fail to see What's on the ground beneath their feet, not hard to find. People cry, but no one asks me to advise them They want to know but they don't ask me how, That's for someone else and not for me, I don't know. Lucky me. No one asks me to advise them. They want to know but they don't ask me how. That's for someone else and not for me, I don't know. Lucky me - oh.
