Playing Odds Like No One Is Watching
Gamble…
Chance?
Hey, you. You wanna dance?
Say no,
I’ll take a chance
asking next song.
And if twice
doesn’t wear on you,
honey—I’ll swear on you.
I’ll go out alone
to center floor
and jump the beat
like no one was there
but you and me,
and you might still say no
but if you do,
I’ll still kill it, slow.
