Rolling the Dice |
Sitting on the tarmac getting ready to roll |
Didn’t sleep a wink the whole night before |
Wondering how they get this chunck of metal in the sky |
And all I wanna do is pull my shade down and die |
I get tired sometimes when it’s that kind of game |
I’ve made my bed and I’m lying in it every day |
It could be worse, I know it could |
But I can’t tell you it’s bad when it’s good |
So I say |
Rolling the dice, it’s the price I pay |
Sometimes wish I’d never learned to play that guitar |
'Til I turn around and see the size of my car |
'Cos if the truth be known I’m not a hit with the girls |
And it’s murder living up to all the stories they’ve heard |
Just an ordinary guy, with a strange old job |
Getting paid to behave, like a juvenille slob, yes I am No body takes me seriously |
Guess that’s the way it was meant to be Like I said |
For rolling the dice, it’s the price I pay |
It’s the prize I pay, uh yeah |
Never used to worry what the future would bring |
But how long can I really keep on doing my thing? |
I’ll be like an addict trying to quit his stuff, yes I will |
But it’s sad but it’s true, it’s a labour of love |
Guess I’ll have to retire to the south of Spain |
Teeing off with the wife I forget about the rain |
So when it’s slipping away from me |
I’ll rather be a slave to eternity |
Like I said |
For rolling the dice, it’s the price I pay, yes it is For rolling the dice, that’s the price I pay |
It’s the price I pay, uh |
