Chance



Take every opportunity
to maximise the odds
When offered, always cut the cards
and don't put faith in Gods
Don't trust in mathematics or
the feeling in your gut
For every golden rule there is
a hidden get out.
But...

I'd never say you shouldn't take
the time to chance your arm
For as the old ones always say
'The third time is the charm'
And though it goes against all sense
there's something we all ken
That one chance in a million
comes through nine out of ten

So always throw the dice once more
to see fate misbehave
And bring good fortune surfing in
upon the seventh wave
