Once it did appear you finally met your match
But with every lucky number there seems to be a catch
You cast your lot in life on a table that always turns
And now you're at the doctor getting treated for your burns
You might think I want an eye for an eye
But that's why you and I never saw eye to eye
A servant to your whims I was faithful as they come
But all that running around just left me feeling numb
You finally hit pay dirt on a bargain you couldn't refuse
But your triumphant eyes are cemented down with glue
You might think I want an eye for an eye
But that's why you and I never saw eye to eye
The gambler I've become is living by the roulette wheel
Clothes-lining the past with another shady deal
Descending to the maelstrom drowning in his drink
A lady on each arm ready to break his bank
You might think I want an eye for an eye
But that's why you and I never saw eye to eye
On a high horse you reside pausing to glance below
LIke a gargoyle on his tower watching the river flow
And down on the banks I'm fishing for a meal
Choking on the dust left from your clicking heels
You might think I want an eye for an eye
And that's why you and I never saw eye to eye
