Heads They Win (Tails You Lose)

A turn of a card may decide file or death

You better take this lesson from me

Some have it all, then a roll of the dice

Can take them for everything

Night after night you bet all you have

Hoping you won't find yourself in a ditch

More unpaid debts, snake eyes again!

The fever starts to take its toll

You fell your blood begin to boil

When the wheel starts to roll

Don't be late to pay your dues

Or you'll get your concrete shoes

Heads they win, tails you lose.

So let it ride and bet it all

Given any moment you can win or fall

The money you owe, the money you spent

You're caught digging in the jar for this month's rent

They've taken the car you don't pay your debts

They're gonna foreclose on all the rest

How did you get your life in this mess?

Take a good look as you bet your last buck

It comes up tails and you're out of luck

You'd better skip town 'cause your cash has run short

You borrowed from loan sharks and didn't report

Your name's on a hit list all over town

The word on the streets is to bury this clown

Your lease on life is about to expire

The season's all over it's time to retire
