Traveller’s Curse

I have been libeled as a wanderer
This is not the case
I have a home, it’s just that
It’s an inconvenient place right now

“None is too many of that kind”
I overhear you say
You make some markings on the page
And stamp and seal my fate

I regret now to inform you
Who refuse to aid my plight
Bad luck will come to those who deny
The travelers their rights

Who can deny your moral right
To prosperity and order
You fell out of your mother
On the correct side of the border

And that mother fall
Gives you this power over me today
But there are forces in this world
That could make all that fall away
- In a second!

All of my pity upon you
All of my pity upon you
My luck can only get better
Yours is bound to be worse
Now I see it upon you
The Traveller’s Curse!

Don’t be misled and think this curse
Is mine to make or lift
You put it on yourself
It’s not my place to bend and sift

Your conscience and your character
Your luck is all your own
Good luck with that, I leave you now
But you’ll never be alone

All of my pity upon you
All of my pity upon you
My luck can only get better
Yours is bound to be worse
Now I see it upon you
The Traveller’s Curse!
