Nothing Left to Lose is about a gambler who has lost everything. However, he is optimistic about the future.
The song is sung by Eric Woolfson, with backing vocals by Chris Rainbow.
[Verse 1]
Nothing's good that uses bad
The heat goes on and it drives you mad
Scornful thoughts that fly your way
You should turn away
'Cause there's nothing more to say
[Verse 2]
You gave the best you had to give
You only have one life to live
You fought so hard you were a slave
After all you gave
There was nothing left to save
[Chorus]
You've got nothing left to lose
(You've got nothing left to lose)
Oh, you've got nothing left to lose
(Who would wanna be standing in your shoes?)
[Verse 3]
You read the book, you turn the page
You change your life in a thousand ways
The dawn of reason lights your eyes
With the key you realise
To the kingdom of the wise
[Accordion Solo]
[Chorus]
You've got nothing left to lose
(You've got nothing left to lose)
Oh, you've got nothing left to lose
(Who would wanna be standing in your shoes?)
[Verse 4]
Nothing ventured, nothing gained
No more lingering doubt remained
Nothing sacred or profane
Everything to gain
Cause you've nothing left
[Outro: Snake Eyes Reprise]
