Betting on Life's Crapshoot: Revelations in Perpetual Groove's Melodic Tale
Lyrics
step up to the passline
Invitation to step up and take a chance or risk in life ("passline" refers to a bet in gambling).
come on and make your bets
Encouragement to make decisions or take actions, akin to placing bets in a game.
you think you know so much honey
Addressing someone who believes they know a lot; a sense of confidence or arrogance.
you aint seen nothing yet
Challenging the person that they haven't experienced everything and there's more to come.
the way you turn your back on things
Commenting on someone's avoidance or disregard for certain things.
now you must lie in your bed
Consequence of one's actions; facing the outcomes or repercussions of decisions.
the way you turn your back on things
Reiteration of turning away from something and the lasting impact or memory it creates.
i wont soon forget
Expressing a commitment to remember the way someone has turned their back on things.
cause i cant see anymore of me taken part in this sad sad deal
Personal realization of not wanting to be part of a negative or unfortunate situation.
as they say what will be will be this time has never felt so real
Reflecting on the unpredictability of life, emphasizing the current moment's intensity.
step up to the passline
Repetition of the invitation to take a chance or risk.
come on and make your bets
Reiteration of encouraging decisive actions, repeating the theme of betting.
you think you got a lock on so much money
Belief in having control over a significant amount of money.
you aint won nothing yet
Contrasting the confidence with the fact that nothing has been won yet.
this bed shes yours to lie in
Highlighting the consequences and ownership of decisions; the bed symbolizes accountability.
now that youve made your bets
Acknowledging the person's commitment to their decisions by lying in the bed they've made.
the way you turn your back on things i wont soo forget
Reaffirming the impact of turning away from certain things and the lasting impression.
cause i cant see anymore of me taken part in this sad sad deal
Reiteration of the unpredictability of life and the intensity of the current experience.
as they say what will be will be
Expression of acceptance of fate or events unfolding as they should.
wouldnt you agree this time has never felt so real
Seeking agreement on the intense and real nature of the current moment.
