Chance Would Be A Fine Thing

Wedge a foot in the door and try to get this game back on track
(Chance would be a fine thing)
Flat on the floor but trying to get that energy back
(Chance would be a fine thing)
So many dead ends there's so many holes
So many rejections they're not good for the soul

When the things we try are working, they have a life of their own
Hardly any effort is needed, to keep them in the zone
But when you loose that fine momentum, when it hides itself away
There's nothing you can do about it, that's how it seems anyway

Consult the Marharishi maybe he can find a way
Seek the wise predictions of the Oracle today
And when all else fails there's always the chance
The wind will change direction
There's always the chance the gods will speak
And cancel their objections

When you're trying too hard the friction will always increase
At the speed of light infinite mass means defeat
Is it time to give up or time to push all the harder
Is it time to retreat and accept that you've got a non-starter

Consult the Marharishi maybe he can find a way
Seek the wise predictions of the Oracle today
And when all else fails there's always the chance
The wind will change direction
There's always the chance the gods will speak
And cancel their objections

Consult the Marharishi maybe he can find a way
Seek the wise predictions of the Oracle today
