Roll the Dice

 

Thrill seekers

Living on the edge

Tempting the hand of fate

Upon an unsafe ledge

 

Everyday someone rolls the dice

Confident of the chances

That Lady Luck is on their side

Always with victory dances

 

They may think

That life is just a game

Until their luck runs out

And they call on holy names

 

In fact

Life is not a game at all

You might think you’re in control

Until fate steals the ball

 

In living your life

You’d better think twice

Before you take that chance

And roll the dice
