Rush - You Bet Your Life Lyrics
Words by neil peart, music by geddy lee and alex lifesonJust another hunter, like a wolf in the sunJust another junkie on a scoring runJust another victim of the things he has doneJust another day -- in the life of a loaded gunThe odds get even -- you name the gameThe odds get even -- the stakes are the sameYou bet your lifeJust another winner, pours his life down the drainJust another island in a hurricaneJust another loser, like a cat in the rainJust another day -- in the path of a speeding trainThe odds get even -- you name the gameThe odds get even -- the stakes are the sameYou bet your lifeAnarchist reactionary running-dog revisionistHindu muslim catholic creation/evolutionistRational romantic mystic cynical idealistMinimal expressionist post-modern neo-symbolistArmchair rocket scientist graffiti existentialistDeconstruction primitive performance photo-realistBe-bop or a one-drop or a hip-hop lite-pop-metallistGold adult contemporary urban country capitalistJust another gypsy with a plastic guitarJust another dancer with her eyes on the starsJust another dreamer who was going too farJust another drunk -- at the wheel of a stolen carThe odds get even -- you name the gameThe odds get even -- the stakes are the sameYou bet your life
