Let's Take a Gamble

from The Pigeon House (act 1 of 3) by DavidJohnHull

lyrics

Let’s Take a Gamble

Let’s take a gamble
On all that we can handle
So we’ll go fool the doctor
Faking discomfiture

He'll write us off as sicky
That’s how we’ll take the mickey
So we can take a gamble
On all that we can handle

Let's leave before we think too much
Leave before we have to explain
Let's go and do indulgence
We’ve come from home, we’re playing away

Who made those rules? They’re for nerds anyway

And I don't care, 'cause I can't swim
And I can’t hold a job down
And I don't want to join in

At least not yet
Maybe never
Depends on the weather
And if the birds of a feather
Make me feel better
I’ll jump at the chance
Then count me in

Let’s take a gamble
Go and room and ramble
If you toe my party line
We’ll have a free crash time

I’ll hang out all forlorn
Checking out the fishermen
Then it’s easy to get hooked up
But it’s a careful play on when’s enough

And I don't care, 'cause I can't swim
And I can’t hold a job down
And I don't want to join in

At least not yet
Maybe never
Depends on the weather
And if the birds of a feather
Make me feel better
I’d jump at the chance
Then count me in
