About the song
Darren had a nice sounding riff. Stone had written some words about bad luck cuz he was at a low point at the time. The rest of the band jammed it with them and Never The Jackpot was born.
Lyrics
Never The Jackpot

I go from bad to worse like I have got a curse
It's dragging me down, it's dragging me down

I'm leaving what's left behind, I'm leaving my mind
Luck ain't on my side, luck ain't on my side
I'm on the losing side, making me deride
The things that hurt my pride so I keep it all inside

So if it's gonna happen it'll happen to me
If it's gonna happen I know that it will be
The times that I fall down
So if it's gonna happen it'll happen to me
If it's gonna happen I know that it will be
The times you're not around

I've never hit the jackpot, don't think I will again
'Cuz in the end all you've got is your friends
To keep you sane, make sure you go the right way
And save the pain, save the pain
