Yeah! Walking down the street in New York City A sandwich board read the end of the world is nigh I looked up and saw the billionaires all scuttling Scrambling to their bolt holes in the sky Watch them fly! But meanwhile we just keep on running Going to the football every Saturday night Yeah! Divine intervention Is out of the question And I'm going to dance in the flames, yeah Divine intervention Is out of the question And life is a gambling game It's a gambling game Driving down an alley in a run-down part of Hollywood Saw her neon light at the psychic's sign Through the gloom I asked her, "What's my future?" Well, she threw up and then broke down and cried Tears in her eyes But I kept moving on to Silverhead To play guitar with a brand-new friend of mine Yeah! Divine intervention Is out of the question And I'm gonna dance in the flames, yeah 'Cause divine intervention Is out of the question And life is a gambling game It's a gambling game Yeah! Divine intervention Is out of the question And I'm going to dance in the flame, yeah Divine intervention Won't give you protection And life is a gambling game Yeah Oh, yeah Come on, yeah Mmm, when the walls cave in And the lights go dim And I drag you out again Well, dystopian values are too hot to handle And I'm going out in a blaze Can we run any faster? It's a total disaster I, I, I'm going down in the flames Yeah, when they try to arrest you I'll come to your rescue Life is a gambling game
