lyrics
wasting your life on the sidewalk, when you could be out on the street,
dodging cars as they go by, the wind goes right through you
life on the edge of a razor, never knowing when you're to fall
sure as hell beats never gambling at all
life's to short to just barely exist, wide spread mediocracy
will suck you up, resist another number on the list
i don't want it, you can have it, you can try but you won't make it
feel the things you feel, i'll take my chances, till i find a better deal
i'll take my chances, along with all the rest
the snail goes over the razor blade, the suicide squad of lemmings parade
to their kingdom, where they've made reservations
i have no reservation, i don't think my seat's been saved
i'll take my chances, here, right
