Once a singer sang 'bout bullshit and everyone could see him fall

And be sure it's been his last hit, he's never been seen at all

Some dictator felt progressive and lay down in the sun

But his people were aggressive, they killed him with a gun

Sometimes you're wrong by some things you have done

You see fate is too strong, nothing's won

No use for a fight if you're not acting right

You'll be cut down to size like a lie

It's the rise and fall, the prize for all, that ain't nice at all

Luck is like a ball you can't recall or care at all, so better use your brain

A little dragon could spit fire but never so for something bad

He didn't know the knight's desire to throw a lance into his head

Romeo loved his Juliet, their parents told them "Stop"

Then it all turned out peculiar, he couldn't get it up

And it's all in vain when you're living with pain, reap not goods you have grown by your own

Feelings you like disappear overnight, you sip up every grin, free to win

It's the rise and fall, the prize for all, that ain't nice at all

Luck is like a ball, you can't recall or care at all, you nearly go insane

A spaceman flies the rocket that takes him to the stars

Thinks his wife is in his pocket but she's strolling 'round in bars

The king of Los Angeles bought himself a teddy bear

And the queen became shameless, she did it with a chair

Sometimes you're wrong by some things you have done, you see fate is too strong, nothing's won

No use for a fight if you're not acting right you'll be cut down to size like a lie

It's the rise and fall, the prize for all, that ain't nice at all

Luck is like a ball you can't recall or care at all

It's the rise and fall, the prize for all, that ain't nice at all

Luck is like a ball you can't recall or care at all, so better use your brain

So better use your brain

Rise... fall...
