I've heard this described as a love song (taking a risk and not having it pay off) but sounds much more like a straight forward gambling addiction message. Someone gets into it thinking they're going to get rich, they have a fool proof system to beat the house, they have luck on their side, etc. Eventually his luck runs out and he loses everything.
Probably my favourite DHC song. Brilliantly written lyrics, Elyse and Karina's trademark dueling vocals, and fantastically composed music. Fast paced and ska-infused, which is what they do best.
