Al Jarreau - Murphy's Law Lyrics
It's too good
It's too right
So something must be wrong
It's a bubble
That's gonna break
I need you
I want you
Been alone too long
If it might miss
It's gonna miss
That's Murphy's Law
And the perfect fit just
Rubs my worry stone
Ya leave it alone
[CHORUS:]
'Cause you're the only luck I need
You make it go
You're the only luck I need
To make Murphy pass my door
We put something on baby
Didn't we, didn't we, didn't we, didn't we
It's so sweet
I repeat
That something must be wrong
If it might not
Then we must stop
And talk about it
It's a work of fiction
They call it a law
But the contradiction
Is we fooled 'em all
[CHORUS:]
You're the only luck I need...
...You're the only luck I need
You make Murphy tell and show
You're the only luck I need...
...You're the only luck I need
To make old Murphy pass my door
If it works don't fix it
The winner takes all
You know it's the Murphy fiction
That's due for a fall
[CHORUS:]

Al Jarreau Murphy's Law Comments
Thank you Al Jarreau for your INSPIRATION. 🎵💎🎶🎩
For my wife and me Al songs are still the soundtrack of our marriage... In our mind he is still with us...
One of his best songs. It's still valid nearly forty years after the album was released.
Grande Al Jarreau. Il tempo passa, la sua musica incanta ancora.
So glad and smooth happy song
Such a fine song - one of the catchiest melodies you'll ever hear, Al's predictably brilliant vocal, a superb groove and that beautiful bridge with the french horn taking it all back to the chorus is mesmerizing. A true gem.
Southern University Human jukebox brought me here.
Perhaps the best song on the album.
Al Jarreau's Murphy's Law song is a classic. High Crime album is a classic. I like the album pictures. RIP Al Jarreau. I miss you. I love Al Jarreau.
RIP music AL JaRReau😢
R.I.P. One of my favorites!!!!!!!
One of my favorite all time songs!
I need you
I want you
Been alone too long
If it might miss
It's gonna miss
That's Murphy's Law
And the perfect fit just
Rubs my worry stone
But if it works don't fix it
Ya leave it alone
'Cause you're the only luck I need
You make it go
You're the only luck I need
To make Murphy pass my door
We put something on baby... Didn't we, didn't we, didn't we, didn't we
It's so sweet
I repeat
That something must be wrong
If it might not
Then we must stop
And talk about it
It's a work of fiction
They call it a law
But the contradiction
Is we fooled 'em all
You're the only luck I need
You make it go
You're the only luck I need
You make Murphy tell and show
You're the only luck I need
You make it go
You're the only luck I need
To make old Murphy pass my door
Mmm... Now don't be superstitious baby...
[Piccolo trumpet solo]
If it works don't fix it
The winner takes all
You know it's the Murphy fiction
That's due for a fall
You're the only luck I need
You make it go
You're the only luck I need
You make Murphy tell and show
You're the only luck I need
You make it go
You're the only luck I need
To make the Murphys pass my door...
Mr Jarreau, still miss you, the world just seem like a better place when you was here! Your
music also made things happy and upbeat, just like this song Murphy Law :)
You're the only luck that I need
And the perfect fit rubs my worry stone, but if it works don't you fix it, you leave it alone! Great lyrics and music, thanks forever Al.
Wow...God we need you here right now..thank you for blessing us with your presence and your music...one of heaven's angels sent to show us the way..rest now..
Congrat! If you came to this place it means you have developed a understanding for music way beyond the commercial trash..

Reminds me of the short-lived 1988-89 ABC mystery-comedy series with stars George Segal (D.P. Murphy), Maggie Han (Kimiko "Kim" Fannuchi), and Josh Mostel (Wesley Harden).
+Christopher Howell Interesting! I do remember they used this song on an episode of "Moonlighting," that classic show with Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis.
"Money Talks -- Maddie Walks." :-)
