Touch And Go
Running with the Devil: Life's High-Stake Symphony
Lyrics
Man in the street nowhere to sleep
People in the street have no place to sleep.
No time for nothing no Patek Phillipe
No time for leisure or luxury, symbolized by Patek Phillipe watches.
Pedal to the metal Blow by Blow
Driving fast and recklessly, described blow by blow.
You're runnin' with the devil it's touch and go
Engaging in risky behavior, living on the edge with uncertainty.
They're leaving you nothing and nowhere to go
Being left with nothing and nowhere to go.
Just put you in the corner like an old banjo
Being neglected or discarded, likened to an old banjo in the corner.
The strings are breakin' but you can't say no
Facing challenges, represented by breaking strings, yet unable to refuse.
You're runnin' with the devil it's touch and go
Continuing to engage in risky behavior despite difficulties.
Systematic one man show
Operating in a systematic manner, possibly alone.
You're caught up in the middle where the four winds blow
Caught in the middle of a challenging situation where uncertainties abound.
No salvation 20 below
No hope or rescue, facing extreme conditions (20 below).
You're runnin' with the devil it's touch and go
Persisting in risky behavior despite the lack of salvation.
All systems go friend or foe
Everything is set to proceed, whether friend or foe.
It's all dependin' on the dice you throw
Outcomes depend on chance, illustrated by the throw of dice.
Come without a warning like a U.F.O.
Unexpected events, entering without warning like a UFO.
You're runnin' with the devil it's touch and go
Continuing with risky endeavors despite unpredictable circumstances.
You see this woman on a T.V. show
Observing a woman on TV adorned with diamonds, portraying a glamorous image.
She's drippin' in diamonds from head to toe
She symbolizes societal expectations and materialism.
They make you believe it's the status quo
Being deceived into believing this extravagant lifestyle is the norm.
You're runnin' with the devil it's touch and go
Continuing risky behavior despite societal pressures and illusions.
All systems go friend or foe
Reiterating the unpredictable nature of events, whether friend or foe.
It's all dependin' on the dice you throw
Reemphasizing the role of chance in determining outcomes.
Come without a warning like a U.F.O.
Reiterating the sudden and unexpected nature of events, akin to a UFO appearance.
You're runnin' with the devil it's touch and go
Persisting in risky endeavors despite uncertainties and surprises.
