lyrics

The jobless social scientist
Playing on his own instinct
Throws up a six again
Meditating medicine man
Discovers houses in his head
For Kicks
Career opportunist
Finds a way
To cheat
And makes no bones
To cheat
And makes no bones at all

Observant ice cream eater
Licks off a parking meter
Kicks off his shoes and sighs
They walk away chattering to themselves
Oh give me back my only chance
To win
And save him from
The over eager crowds
The latent patient waiting
Throws back his head
And laughs it off

About the brave undaunted
French chef who's leading lobsters
Into pots where they sceam
And moan
Railway guard is bored
Unsurprisingly
Takes a chance
And loses again
Prima donna park keeper
His community chest
Is bared with scars
