Roll the Bones |
Well, you can stake that claim |
Good work is the key to good fortune |
Winners take that praise |
Losers seldom take that blame |
If they don’t take that game |
And sometimes the winner takes nothing |
We draw our own designs |
But fortune has to make that frame |
We go out in the world and take our chances |
Fate is just the weight of circumstances |
That’s the way that lady luck dances |
Roll the bones |
Why are we here? |
Because we’re here |
Roll the bones |
Why does it happen? |
Because it happens |
Roll the bones |
Faith is cold as ice |
Why are little ones born only to suffer |
For the want of immunity |
Or a bowl of rice? |
Well, who would hold a price |
On the heads of the innocent children |
If there’s some immortal power |
To control the dice? |
We come into the world and take our chances |
Fate is just the weight of circumstances |
That’s the way that lady luck dances |
Roll the bones |
Why are we here? |
Because we’re here |
Roll the bones |
Why does it happen? |
Because it happens |
Roll the bones |
Jack, relax |
Get busy with the facts |
No zodiacs or almanacs |
No maniacs in polyester slacks |
Just the facts |
Gonna kick some gluteus max |
It’s a parallax, you dig? |
You move around |
The small gets big |
It’s a rig |
It’s action, reaction |
Random interaction |
So who’s afraid |
Of a little abstraction? |
Can’t get no satisfaction |
From the facts? |
You better run, homeboy |
A fact’s a fact |
From Nome to Rome, boy |
What’s the deal? |
Spin the wheel |
If the dice are hot |
Take a shot |
Play your cards, show us what you got |
What you’re holding |
If the cards are cold |
Don’t go folding |
Lady Luck is golden |
She favors the bold that’s cold |
Stop throwing stones |
The night has a thousand saxophones |
So get out there and rock |
Roll the bones |
Get busy |
Roll the bones |
Why are we here? |
Because we’re here |
Roll the bones, roll the bones |
Why does it happen? |
Because it happens |
Roll the bones, roll the bones |
Why are we here? |
Because we’re here |
Roll the bones, roll the bones |
Why does it happen? |
Because it happens |
Roll the bones, roll the bones |
Why does it happen? |
Because it happens |
Roll the bones, roll the bones |
Why are we here? |
Because we’re here |
Roll the bones, roll the bones |
Why does it happen? |
Because it happens |
Roll the bones, roll the bones |
