No Leaf Clover

Luck... some would say that if it weren't for bad luck I wouldn't have any luck at all... then again, there is no luck, there is no coincidence, only the Force. But we all knew that, right?

"No Leaf Clover" by Metallica is a strange one. It's all about positivity, but at the same time not. I guess it really is a case of be careful what you wish for. After all, the light at the end of the tunnel could just be the train coming your way. The only thing that really comes to mind is curb your enthusiasm (or something like that).

And it feels right this time
On his crash course with the big time
Pay no mind to the distant thunder
New Day fills his head with wonder, boy

Says it feels right this time
Turned it 'round and found the right line
“Good day to be alive, sir
Good day to be alive,” he says

Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way

Don't it feels right like this
All the pieces fall to his wish
“Suck up for that quick reward, boy
Suck up for that quick reward,” they say

Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way
It's coming your way
It's coming your wayaaay oh yeah!
Here it comes

Then it comes to be that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel
Was just a freight train coming your way

Then it comes to be, yeah...
Then it comes to be, yeah...
Then it comes to be, yeah...
Then it comes to be, yeah...
Then it comes to be, yeah.
Then it comes to be, yeah...
Then it comes to be, yeah...
Then it comes to be, yeah!

Despite what's on the horizon, It's a good day to be alive.
