Now Or Never
I
see the old man
see the child in front
wondering'bout what's heaven
and don't forget reality
dream, feel it and fly away...
where did you start
how could you forget
you heard the voice
you got this feeling
you know we'll hurt you so join the cage
and believe in what we said
where did you come from
how could you forget
you're just a puppet
so join the cage
instead you're showing us feelings
try to be a man
how could you forget, you're on the run
where are those who prayed the lies
where are thos
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 out chances
Fate is just the weight of circumstances
That's the way that lady luck dances
Roll the bones
-Chorus-
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
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 to take our chances
Fate is just the weight of circumstances
That's the way that lady luck dances
Roll the bones, roll the bones
-Repeat Chorus 2x-
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?
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,
And roll the bones.
Get busy!
Roll the bones
-Repeat Chorus 4x Fade Out-
