Lyrics

It's so easy, but I can't do it

So risky, but I gotta chance it

It's so funny, there's nothing to laugh about

My money, that's all you wanna talk about

I can see what you want me to be

But I'm no fool

It's in the lap of the gods

Whoa, whoa, la-la-la, whoa

I can see what you want me to be

But I'm no fool

No beginning, there's no ending

There's no meaning in my pretending

Believe me, life goes on and on and

Forgive me when I ask you, "Where do I belong?"

You say, "I (You can do it) can't (You can do it)

(You can go and set him free) Set you free from me"

But that's not true

It's in the lap of the gods

Whoa, whoa, la-la-la, whoa

I can see what you want me to be

But I'm no fool

It's in the lap of the gods

Whoa, whoa, la-la-la, whoa

Whoa, whoa, la-la, wah, wah, ooh

But that's not true

It's in the lap of the gods

Whoa, whoa, la-la-la, whoa

Whoa, whoa, la-la, wah, wah, ooh

But I'm no fool

It's in the lap of the gods

Whoa, whoa, la-la-la, whoa

Whoa, whoa, la-la, wah, wah, ooh

It's in the lap of the gods

Whoa, whoa, la-la-la, whoa

Whoa, whoa, la-la, wah, wah, ooh

But I'm no fool

It's in the lap of the gods

Whoa, whoa, la-la-la, whoa

Whoa, whoa, la-la, wah, wah, ooh

(Ooh, yeah)
