The Odds -Jake Bugg
A man of great ambition he posed himself to be
A man upon a mission with pretentions to achieve
All his friends admire him
In every word they trust him I believe
And the odds seem forever in his favor
He made a sound investment in his own abilities
Held the clientele and some committed employees
Word got in the town money to be made
And cash be found
And the odds seem forever in his favor
Sooner or later the man is bound to fall
Won βt find liser
Sooner or later empires are bound to fall
The wind blows forever without favor
But the odds were not endeavored
Forever in your favor
He bought a ground a house on a more expensive street
Right across the a place to rest his feet
Felt the arise before he knew it wasn βt all back
Still he thought he had the odds in his favor
We hate to disappoint you the back at the end of you
The string of repossessions his wife βs expensive heels
The season prouder cause he felt a certain feeling
I believe
And he knew the odds will fall far in his favor
Sooner or later the man is bound to fall
Won βt find liser
Sooner or later it βs the end after all
Just the wind don βt blow forever without favor
But the odds were not endeavored
Forever in your favor
You βre expensive pockets are empty
And you βre feeling insecure
Thing you may resent it and in fact I βm pretty sure
Cause being wealthy is really all that far from being poor
I βm not so sure
But the odds are not forever in your favor
A man of great ambition he posed himself to be
A man upon a mission with pretentions to achieve
All his friends admire him
In every word they trust him I believe
And the odds seem forever in his favor
He made a sound investment in his own abilities
Held the clientele and some committed employees
Word got in the town money to be made
And cash be found
And the odds seem forever in his favor
Sooner or later the man is bound to fall
Won βt find liser
Sooner or later empires are bound to fall
The wind blows forever without favor
But the odds were not endeavored
Forever in your favor
He bought a ground a house on a more expensive street
Right across the a place to rest his feet
Felt the arise before he knew it wasn βt all back
Still he thought he had the odds in his favor
We hate to disappoint you the back at the end of you
The string of repossessions his wife βs expensive heels
The season prouder cause he felt a certain feeling
I believe
And he knew the odds will fall far in his favor
Sooner or later the man is bound to fall
Won βt find liser
Sooner or later it βs the end after all
Just the wind don βt blow forever without favor
But the odds were not endeavored
Forever in your favor
You βre expensive pockets are empty
And you βre feeling insecure
Thing you may resent it and in fact I βm pretty sure
Cause being wealthy is really all that far from being poor
I βm not so sure
But the odds are not forever in your favor
