Slim Chances Lyrics

A few billion years ago was an empty, soulless void

When promptly depth and order were released and took hold

Now you and I are floating by means of a steel boat

Cruising seventy three miles an hour down the road

Awful slim chances of you and me

During the drive into town we hardly spoke a word

But the feeling was mutual no need to converse

Rather we turned our ears to the setting sun

It bids us goodbye at the top of its lungs

Awful slim chances of you and me

Maybe slim chances are all we need

Farewell for now my friend, I'm going off to work

Where I'll sport an awful sweaty brow in my blue collared shirt

When I get home we'll shoot the shit like we never have before

We'll blow all three hinges off of your front door

It'll be just like the good old days

I wouldn't have it any other way

Oh the memories we're making

They've bored their way down deep in my chest

You're a man in my eyes I know you'll do what's right

I wish you the best

It seems the time has come to settle down

Start acting our age

But I'll take these memories to my grave

I'll take them all to my grave

Our days carry onward toward the end of the line

It seems our slim chances suited us just fine

We were never sure off anything, neither fold nor bluff

But we played our cards and earned our scars and hoped they'd be enough

All we ever needed was a chance

All we ever needed was a chance
