Two Shots

INTRO [Yasper]:
We all get a moment where the stars align
The universe gives us a verse in the song of time
The spotlight swings our way and it's our time to shine
We're handed a mic on the stage of life, time to rhyme

VERSE 1 [Yasper]:
But what happens if you choke and you didn't catch a break?
If you failed, or you bailed with your tail between your legs?
What about those of us who missed our shot, didn't rise to the top
Never became thе cream, and we just remainеd the crop

PRE-CHORUS [Yasper]:
I've heard it said before that we get one shot in life
And even though that may be true, it's not exactly right
'Cause here's a secret: even though we get one shot in life
We all get that one shot twice

CHORUS [Yasper}:
We all get one shot twice
We all get one shot twice
In other words, we get two shots in life
That's why we all get one shot twice

VERSE 2 [Aniq]:
Now what your saying is confusing, but I think I understand
Everybody gets one shot, times a second chance

[Yasper]
Exactly, somehow I didn't make it with my ska band
Apparently pop-punk with brass doesn't win you fans
So, do I hang up my suspenders, pork pie and trombone?
Be content installing AV equipment in people's homes?
Hell no, because life's gonna throw you two bones!
That's right, we get to kill one bird with two stones!

Eric Stoltz couldn't go back in time and get rehired
As Marty in "Back to the Future" after he was fired
But then he got a cool supporting role in "Pulp Fiction"
And now he's a sought-after director of television

[Chorus}

BRIDGE [Aniq]:
(Two shots) To launch a second career!
(Two shots) Like my uncle Amir!
(Two shots) He was a lawyer, now he's kick-starting a microbrew
'Cause you don't get one shot, you get two!

VERSE 3 [Aniq]:
I fell in love with Zoe in Mr. Shapiro's class
Chemistry partners whose chemistry was unmatched
Maybe with the exception of hydrogen and oxygen (Water!)
But I never made a move, so she walked to the altar
With another dude, and I got so depressed
I fell apart like "The West Wing" after Sorkin left
I was filled with regret, but if this song is correct
I missed my one shot at love but I got one shot left!

VERSE 4 [Walt, Yasper & Aniq]:
And now it's time for my verse
Tonight, for me, is gonna be
Your first movie bombs? Make a better sequel!
You fail the bar exam? Become a paralegal
Your first band, "The Quarrymen," doesn't move the needle?
Form a second band, and call it the fuckin' Beatles!

[Chorus x2]
