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
