letra de games, life, dreams - william of evans

[chorus]
left hand yellow and right hand green
one foot in your past, other one on your dreams
next spin comes now you want out (how could you tell?)
that’s what the game of life is about (how could you tell?)
left hand yellow and right hand green
one foot in your past, other one on your dreams
next spin comes now you want out
that’s what the game of life is about

[verse 1]
dreamed of being a dentist, or being a lawyer
now i’m in my room, singing into recorders
dreamed of being a priest, or maybe a teacher
a superstar athlete with my own sneaker
dreamed of having a family, maybe owning a home
where kids could go play and pets could all roam
never dreamed about debt, or dying alone
but sometimes this game’s got a mind of its own

[verse 2]
was a stand-up comic, but i never made it
’cause i had bad knees and i sweat on stages
then i made funny videos, but no one played them
then i stopped laughing after i graduated
[chorus]
left hand yellow and right hand green
one foot in your past, other one on your dreams
next spin comes now you want out (how could you tell?)
that’s what the game of life is about (how could you tell?)
left hand yellow and right hand green
one foot in your past, other one on your dreams
next spin comes now you want out
that’s what the game of life is about

[verse 3]
how do you do what you love and make a profit?
you know, follow your dreams and make money off it
you know, make clothes on depop and then make deposits
how do you sell ’em the skeletons inside of your closet?

[verse 4]
there are no instructions
i don’t understand this
it seems in this game, if you dream
then your path is

[bridge]
skip you, draw four
uno, too slow
you know, you don’t
reverse, on life
draw two, guess who
ought to, go fish
bought two, boardwalk
park place, got you
that’s gon’ cost you
an arm, a leg
operation, you’ dead
water on knee, price on your head
you go to jail, left foot on red
back to square one, left you on read
message was sent
free parking spent
chance card, you played
pay dues, plus rent
cash in, mouse trap
trouble, house wins
pop-ups, loose ends
a wrench, thrown in
mustard, can’t cut
kernel, wisdom
bedroom, bathroom
workplace, kitchen
something’s missing
wake up, your roll again
[chorus]
left hand yellow and right hand green
one foot in your past, other one on your dreams
next spin comes now you want out (how could you tell?)
that’s what the game of life is about (how could you tell?)
left hand yellow and right hand green
one foot in your past, other one on your dreams
next spin comes now you want out
that’s what the game of life is about

[verse 5]
a decade, gone
spent ten years on
trivial pursuits
could’ve been a recruit
in the army, a plumber
or picked up farming
anything but them pipe dreams i’ve been guarding
like a box-and-one, or 2-3 defense
could keep playing, but give me a reason
’cause when the board falls, no one picks up the pieces
now it all runs together in a routine sequence
of snakes, shoots, cloaks, ladders
reruns, and recurring family matters
some days it all counts, some days it don’t matter
some days i’m moving up, some days i’m moving backwards
