Celebrity Hit List
Gambling with Life: A Celebrity's Downfall
Lyrics
I gambled with my house when I lost my car
Gambling led to the loss of the house when the car was lost.
I gambled with my car trying to win back my wife
Attempting to win back the wife by gambling the car.
I lost my family on a sure fire thing
Lost the family due to a seemingly certain bet.
Then I lost against the odds when I gambled with my life
Lost a gamble with life against the odds.
Now I'm on a list I'm on a list
Being included in a list, possibly related to celebrities.
The celebrity hit list
Explicit mention of a "celebrity hit list."
Another target out on the market
Reference to oneself as a target on the market.
The celebrity hit list
Reiteration of being on a "celebrity hit list."
I had a decent house I had a fancy car
Had a comfortable life with a nice house and car.
I need a fancy car to drive my fancy wife
Need for a fancy car to maintain the lifestyle with the wife.
I had a family as a sure fire thing
Family life seen as a certain and positive aspect.
I'd won against the odds first prize a nice life
Previously succeeded against the odds, enjoying a good life.
Now I'm on a list I'm on a list

And when I fly I always fly at least as high as the sky
Expressing flying as high as the sky, possibly indicating success.
And when I fall I always fall at least as hard as you all
Falling as hard as others when facing challenges.
Now I'm on a list I'm on a list
Repetition of being on a list, emphasizing the situation.

'cause when I fly I always fly
Emphasizing the consistent behavior of flying high.
