Story behind the song
This song is just a fun song about a guy so unlucky at love that even prostitutes turn him down. It is a party song.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Woke up in the morning, hair all a mess,
Heart full of hope, in a dirty T-shirt and jeans,
Saw a girl in the diner, flashed her a grin,
But she rolled her eyes, said, "You aint got a chance, my friend!"
Pre-Chorus
Every time I get brave, I just trip on my feet,
Cant even charm the ladies on the shady street.
Chorus
Not tonight, buddy, thats what they say,
Even the girls of the night, they run away!
Im the king of the lost causes, hear my sigh,
When the clock strikes nine, Im the stand-up guy!
Not tonight, buddy, better luck next time,
I swear Im a catch, but no ones in line!
Verse 2
Tried my luck online, swiped right with a frown,
Every pretty face said, Sorry, not in town.
Hit the bar for a drink, thought Id find a spark,
But the bouncer shouted, Hey man, you cant park!
Pre-Chorus
Every pickup lines a disaster on cue,
Why dont you just take me home? Nah, they all say nope not you
Chorus
Not tonight, buddy, thats what they say,
Even the girls of the night, they run away!
Im the king of the lost causes, hear my sigh,
When the clock strikes nine, Im the stand-up guy!
Not tonight, buddy, better luck next time,
I swear Im a catch, but no ones in line!
Bridge
So Ill rock my heart out, raise my glass to the stars,
One day my luck will change, forget these scars.
With a laugh and a wink, Ill dance through the night,
Cause even the losers need a little spotlight!
Chorus
Not tonight, buddy, thats what they say,
Even the girls of the night, they run away!
Im the king of the lost causes, hear my sigh,
When the clock strikes nine, Im the stand-up guy!
Not tonight, buddy, better luck next time,
I swear Im a catch, but no ones in line!
Outro
Not tonight, buddy, but Ill keep my head high,
With a hard rock heartbeat, Ill give it one more try!
Yeah, not tonight, but one day Ill see,
With all of this bad luck, how lucky I can be!
