I said “speak quickly, I’ve got a lot of shit on my plate,”
When Bad Luck kicked down my door, late one night,
I embraced my old friend, "it’s been so long, are you alright?"
She looked back, with a poisonous glance,
“I’ve got some bad ideas if you’re willing to take a chance”,
When all is said and done, it’s heads or tails / Will you lie on roses, or a bed of nails,
Either way you end up in a box in the end,
But the choices you make along the way are yours my friend,
I won’t speak quickly, I won’t be shut out and ignored,
I won’t speak quickly, I won’t be left out in the cold,
*I heard a knock at the door, it was Fortune again, with gin on her breath and a knife clutched to her chest. Her eyes told me everything I needed to know, and I said goodbye as it slid home.*
I’m drunk on the chances, I’m drunk on the rise and the decline,
I’m drunk on the sadness, hung up on misfortunes that we find,
I’m drunk on the madness, torn down by the pathways that we wind,
I’m drunk on the chances, I’m drunk on the rise and the decline,
You’re all that I wanted, I’m drunk on the chance to make you mine.
