Warren William Zevon (January 24, 1947 – September 7, 2003), born in Chicago, Illinois, was a rock and roll musician and songwriter. He was noted for his offbeat, sardonic view of life which was reflected in his dark, sometimes humorous songs, which often incorporated political or historical themes. He was born to a Russian Jewish father and a Mormon mother and soon moved to California. At the age of 12/13, Warren Zevon was a regular visitor to the home of Igor Stravinsky where he, along with Robert Craft, would study music. He turned to a musical career early, including a stretch as part of a Sonny and Cher-type male/female duo called Lyme and Cybelle, and spent time as a session musician (notably as piano player for the Everly Brothers) and jingle composer.

Bad Karma Lyrics
Warren Zevon
Was it something I did
In another life?
I try and try
But nothing comes out right
Bad Karma
Killing me by degrees
I took a wrong turn
On the astral plane
Now I keep on thinkin'
My luck is gonna change
Someday
Bad Karma
It's uphill all the way
I can't run, Can't hide
Can't get away
It must be my destiny
The same thing happens to me every day
Bad Karma
Coming after me
Bad Karma
Killing me by degrees
Bad Karma
Bad Karma
It's a dog's life
And it's not my fault
Ought to hang my picture
In the All Time Losers' Hall of Fame
Bad Karma
It's a low down dirty shame
I can't run,
Can't hide
Can't get away
It must be my destiny
The same thing happens to me every day
Bad Karma
Coming after me
Bad Karma
Killing me by degrees
Bad Karma
