Yeah!
Walking down the street in New York City
A sandwich bar at the end of the world at night
I looked up and saw the bare end ass of Scotland
Scrambling to four poles in the sky
Watch them fly
But meanwhile, we just keep on running
Going to the football every Saturday night
Yeah, divine intervention
Is out of the question
I go to dance in the flames, yeah
Divine intervention
Is out of the question
And life is a gambling game
Is a gambling game
Driving down an alley in a rundown part of Hollywood
Saw her neon light up the side of the sign
Through the gloom, I asked her, "What's my future?"
Well, she threw up and then broke down and cried
Tears in her eyes
I kept moving on to Silver Lake
To play guitar with a brand-new friend of mine
Yeah, divine intervention
Is out of the question
I go to dance in the flames, yeah
'Cause divine intervention
Is out of the question
And life is a gambling game
It's a gambling game
ย
Yeah, divine intervention
Is out of the question
I go to dance in the flame, yeah
Divine intervention
Won't give you protection
Life is a gambling game
Yeah
Oh, yeah
Come on, yeah
ย
Mm, when the walls cave in
And the lights go dim
And I drag you out again
Well, dystopian values are too hot to handle
And I'm going out in a blaze
Can we run any faster?
It's a total disaster
I, I, I'm going down in the flames
Yeah, when they try to arrest you
I'll come to your rescue
Life is a gambling game
