Slip and Roll

You went from moonlighting
 But you came out fighting
 I saw you larger than life
 Throwing your knife
 Gone into deep hiding
 But you were so charming
 That it was disarming
 I wondered what was behind
 Having to find
 An army that keeps arming
 Oh, Slip and roll, honey
 Stick the jab, kid
 Don't just trade punches
 Like your father did
 Cause this playing the odds
 Isn't fooling the gods
 So slip and roll til you're willing to take the hit
 So we just keep hoping
 Although the deck's sloping
 You're thinking, Throw me a bone
 Or leave me alone
 To do what they call coping
 Oh, Slip and roll, honey
 Stick the jab, kid
 Don't just trade punches
 Like your father did
 Cause this playing the odds
 Isn't fooling the gods
 So slip and roll til you're willing to take the hit
 And you can take it, take it, take it, take it
 We've all seen that guy take it on the chin
 Oh, take it, take it, I know you can take it
 But when will you take something in
 Oh, Slip and roll, honey
 Stick the jab, kid
 Don't just trade punches
 Like your father did
 Cause this playing the odds
 Isn't fooling the gods
 So slip and roll til you're willing to take the hit
 And you can take it, take it, take it, take it
 We've all seen that guy take it on the chin
 Oh, take it, take it, I know you can take it
 But when will you take something in
 When will you take something in
