The Greatest Trait

You've been told that choices are important
Suggesting you're one who controls fate
However comforting, it isn't actually true
The greatest trait to have is luck
Not power, not hope, not wisdom
Great teams can become snake-bit
However hard they play face defeat
You can try your entire life to do right
And fail straight from the start
But a moron without a clue
Can stumble into victory
He can be smoking a cigarette
Near an open vat of gasoline
There's not even a spark
While the most careful person
Can walk a mile from a disaster
Be struck dead from a vehicle part
Flying swiftly through the air
Still you should try to pass the test
But don't assume it will end well
Just assume it will end
And hope for the best
