Forty to One |
I’m no fool |
I knew from the start |
There are some who mend |
Some who tear apart |
I’m no child |
I can read a map |
You’d have to be dumb |
To lose yourself like that |
Forty to one |
I bet you forty to one |
From your fingertips |
To your Freudian slips |
You’re the first to leave any sinking ship |
But don’t think I |
Have been remiss |
I know the length of the odds |
To a bet like this |
Forty to one |
I bet you forty to one |
Playing it safe it ain’t true to my code |
So I’ll double the odds |
And take the riskier road |
Deuces are wild |
And I’m betting it all |
With nothing to count on |
To break my fall |
Now I’m not saying |
That I can tell |
There’s a hope in hell |
Of a second throught |
And all I know is a girl who runs |
Pretty soon becomes |
One who can be caught |
Forty to one |
I bet you forty to one |
