Someone Else's Bet Lyrics
White light, maybe time to go
Surrounded by all my love, bells and all
Persuaded by my mother's fear
Deathbed sinner's prayer, fingers cross
I will not lay in bed
With the wheel turnin' in my head
Tryin' to figure out the spread
On someone else's bet.
Dinner's on the table
Your mother's at the door
Kids are watchin' TV
Never needed me more...
Never needed me more...
Never needed me more...
Telephone's ringing
Bill collectors buy and sell
I may not be in heaven,
but you're in hell.
Okay, I'll lay here a little while
If you promise to run out history
through my head
When my horizon flip
Started making lists
And I'm never gonna rest in peace
In your debt
I will not lay in bed
With the wheel turnin' in my head
Tryin' to figure out the spread
On someone else's bet.
Surrounded by all my love, bells and all
Persuaded by my mother's fear
Deathbed sinner's prayer, fingers cross
With the wheel turnin' in my head
Tryin' to figure out the spread
On someone else's bet.
Your mother's at the door
Kids are watchin' TV
Never needed me more...
Never needed me more...
Never needed me more...
Bill collectors buy and sell
I may not be in heaven,
but you're in hell.
If you promise to run out history
through my head
Started making lists
And I'm never gonna rest in peace
In your debt
With the wheel turnin' in my head
Tryin' to figure out the spread
On someone else's bet.
