[Verse 1]
Just another hunter, like a wolf in the sun
Just another junkie on a scoring run
Just another victim of the things he has done
Just another day in the life of a loaded gun
[Chorus 1]
The odds get even
You name the game
The odds get even
The stakes are the same
You bet your life...
[Verse 2]
Just another winner, pours his life down the drain
Just another island in a hurricane
Just another loser, like a cat in the rain
Just another day in the path of a speeding train
[Chorus 1]
The odds get even
You name the game
The odds get even
The stakes are the same
You bet your life...
[Chorus 2]
Anarchist reactionary running dog revisionist
Hindu muslim catholic creation / evolutionist
Rational romantic mystic cynical idealist
Minimal expressionist post-modern neo-symbolist
[Chorus 3]
Armchair rocket scientist graffiti existentialist
Deconstruction primitive performance photorealist
Be-bop or a one drop or a hip-hop lite pop metallist
Gold adult contemporary urban country capitalist
[Verse 3]
Just another gypsy with a plastic guitar
Just another dancer with her eyes on the stars
Just another dreamer who was going too far
Just another drunk at the wheel of a stolen car
[Chorus 1]
The odds get even
The odds get even
You bet your life...
[Chorus 2]
