[IRVING]
Winners lose and losers win
Put your money down and watch the planet spin
All good fortune changes hands inevitably
And the fish you couldn't catch are still in the sea

When your hat lets rain in
Because it has no crown
And your feet are wet and getting wetter
When you're on rock bottom
And you can't go down
Any change is for the better

[BROM]
When your luck bows out
And you go to jail
And you're on the inside looking out at the cop
When your friends say sorry
And you can't get bail
Then there's nowhere to go but up

[IRVING]
To the man who has a-plеnty
Any change is for the worse
So hе plays a losing hand
Against the universe
[IRVING & BROM]
But in wintry weather
When the leaves turn brown
And the banker has a mortgage on your crop

[IRVING]
When you're on rock bottom

[BROM]
And you can't go down

[IRVING & BROM]
Then there's nowhere to go but up!
