Lucky Ducks

"Lucky Ducks" is a song featured in the 2022 animated feature film The Bob's Burgers Movie. Within the context of the film, the Belcher children, Tina, Gene, and Louise, visit the Carny Town, which is just a crowded trailer park that is behind some buildings, to try and find some information on the death of Cotton Candy Dan and the clear the name of Mr. Fischoeder. The Carnies believe that he is guilty and sing about how difficult it is to live in the conditions that they have. Undeterred, Louise tells them that their lives seem wonderful by comparison as she has gone through problems of her own; particularly getting called a baby by a classmate of hers.
An instrumental version exists in the soundtrack and is played over the credits.

Carnies:
Some lucky ducks get all the luck
Some break their backs to make a buck
And sure, we are a bunch of shady
Criminal-ish gents and ladies
But we did our time (Yeah)
We paid for our crimes (Well, most of us)
And our misdemeanors, now we sell fried dough and wieners
Even though we're kinda' sketchy gals and fellas
Doesn't mean that Fischoeder can go and kill us (Uh-uh)
Working here can really be a roller coaster
One day, you're clеaning vomit, next, you're on a missing poster
It's such a drag to havе a boss
Who pays you bad (Who pays us bad) then bumps you off
Some lucky ducks get all the luck (Oh, yes, they do)
But that's not us (No, sir), unlucky schmucks
It really stinks, it really sucks
So we'll just play our lucky ducks
Tina:
Cool, have fun with that
Gene:
Should we get going?
Louise:
Some lucky ducks get all the luck (Nope)
You've said your piece, now listen up
To me, your life, it seems just fine
You think that's bad? Try being nine
The other day, things got real crazy
A girl at school called me a baby
Yeah
Even though I'm small, well, I can tell you for sure
I'm gonna be the one that solves this frickin' murder
I know you all think Fischoeder's the one who did it
But I will find the evidence to get him acquitted
Louise and Carnies:
I'm just a kid (It's such a drag)
That's what they say (To have a boss)
"Now run along" (Who pays you bad)
"Now go and play" (Then bumps you off)
Some lucky ducks (It really stinks)
Get all the luck (It really sucks)
Until I show (So we'll just play)
Them what is what (Our lucky ducks)
Louise:
I'm gonna show them all what I can do
Gonna show 'em I'm much braver than what
You think that I am even though I'm small
No matter what comes, I gotta show you all
Come on, we don't need their help
Tina:
Have a nice day!
