lyrics: |
  Didn't you beg for a minute of relief
  Didn't you dream of a little company
  So what if it came with a mother in a cage
  Take what you're given to get along with me

  Lucky you
  Got me lookin out for ya
  In a second I'll show ya
  Hey
  Lucky you
  You get invited to the party
  Cause you're looking so sorry
  Lucky you

  Oooh
  Oooh
  Oooh
  Oooh

  Didn't you cry for immediate release
  Bleed me night and day
  Lay me down to medicate
  Bleed me night and day
  Bleed me
  Bleed me
  Bleed me
  Bleed me
  Bleed me
  Bleed me

  Lucky you
  Got me lookin out for ya
  In a second I'll show ya
  Hey
  Lucky you
  You get invited to the party
  Cause you're looking so sorry
  Lucky you

  Oooh
  Oooh

  Lucky you
  Got me lookin out for ya
  In a second I'll show ya
  Hey
  Lucky you
  You get invited to the party
  Cause you're looking so sorry
  Lucky you

  Oooh
  Oooh

**FEiN** single (**August 24, 2018**), co-written by **Luke Francis Walton** and **Brandon Michael Woodward**. Mixed and mastered by **[Frank Rosato](/with/frank-rosato/)** (same Woodcliff chain as [*Behave*](/songs/behave/) and [*Infant*](/songs/infant/)). Not on [*Little Homes*](/albums/little-homes-fein/) (2016); 2018 single cluster after [*Friend*](/songs/friend/) (June 2018).

A deal you already asked for, with the need admitted upfront (*didn't you beg for a minute of relief*) and a grotesque price tag attached: *so what if it came with a mother in a cage*. *Little Homes* theatrical cruelty applied to intimacy, where acceptance means swallowing the whole package. The chorus is sarcasm as care, pity dressed up as a VIP pass: *you get invited to the party / cause you're looking so sorry*. The title repeats like a host congratulating a guest who had no choice.

The bridge turns medical. *Immediate release* carries the pharma double meaning, instant relief against a record-label release date, and the helper becomes the drain: *bleed me*, six times, mantra as extraction. Same FEiN register as [*Behave*](/songs/behave/) (scripted loyalty) and [*Infant*](/songs/infant/) (misread safety), but here the hook is **mock gratitude**. Pairs with [*Friend*](/songs/friend/) as the other 2018 Walton/Woodward single on this site.

[I Heart Moosiq](https://iheartmoosiq.tumblr.com/post/177593085294/premiere-fein-lucky-you-lucky-us-we-get) ran the premiere with direct Luke/Brandon quotes, the strongest indexed FEiN quasi-interview on the public web. See [/interviews/](/interviews/) for the full FEiN press vs Q&A map.
