Well, I make no claim to wisdomAnd I never give adviceBut I know better than to look for reasonsBehind the rolling of the dice
CHORUSIt’s the rolling of the dice, my friends,Just the rolling of the diceIt’s the rolling of the dice, my friends,Just the rolling of the dice
Now some believe in karmaOr a fate fixed by the starsAnd there's some who say that destinyIs ours to make or mar But when one man takes the prizesWhile another pays the priceThere’s not much cosmic justiceJust the rolling of the dice
...CHORUS
Well I’ve been to church on SundayAnd I've raised my voice in prayerAnd I’ve read the words of wise menBut I found no answers there It makes no sense to questionThe working of blind chanceWhen God’s a hopeless gamblerWho loves the rolling of the dice
...CHORUS
So if you’re waiting for enlightenmentWell I wouldn’t hold your breath'Cos every day you let slip awayIs one day nearer death And you might be lucky one timeYou might not be lucky twiceDon’t go thinking you can second-guessThe rolling of the dice
...CHORUS
