Big Blue
There's a hill to climb to reach your goal
There's another right behind it
Every time you think you're on a roll
Lady luck will show you different
No rest for the wicked, just keep
Kicking back against the pressure
Unless you have the ticket to a
Life of leisure, freedom, pleasure
Well it's pretty plain to see
This life's a lottery
Three steps forward two steps back
In the face of a howling winter gale
Still making progress on the track
Still aiming for the Holy Grail
No escape from the prison, just keep
Grinning as you tred the wheel
No parole, no remission it's a
Life sentence with no appeal
The alternatives don't look so great
So make the best of what is on your plate
Pay your money, place your bet
Pray to God to not forget you
All you need's a little hope
A little help so you can cope
A chance to take away the chains
A little freedom from your pain
Reprieve from digging in the dirt
A chance to breathe
Every cloud is an opportunity
Every knock just makes you stronger
Every time there's a door slammed in your face
Keep knocking on another
Don't lose your faith, just keep on
Singing while you swing your hammer
Break down the wall and let the
Sunlight flood into the slammer
Keep going through the darkest night
Don't give up or you'll lose the fight
And just remember that you're not alone
There's billions more who know exactly what you're
Going through
On the big blue wheel
On the big blue wheel
On the big blue wheel
On the big blue wheel
There's another right behind it
Every time you think you're on a roll
Lady luck will show you different
No rest for the wicked, just keep
Kicking back against the pressure
Unless you have the ticket to a
Life of leisure, freedom, pleasure
Well it's pretty plain to see
This life's a lottery
Three steps forward two steps back
In the face of a howling winter gale
Still making progress on the track
Still aiming for the Holy Grail
No escape from the prison, just keep
Grinning as you tred the wheel
No parole, no remission it's a
Life sentence with no appeal
The alternatives don't look so great
So make the best of what is on your plate
Pay your money, place your bet
Pray to God to not forget you
All you need's a little hope
A little help so you can cope
A chance to take away the chains
A little freedom from your pain
Reprieve from digging in the dirt
A chance to breathe
Every cloud is an opportunity
Every knock just makes you stronger
Every time there's a door slammed in your face
Keep knocking on another
Don't lose your faith, just keep on
Singing while you swing your hammer
Break down the wall and let the
Sunlight flood into the slammer
Keep going through the darkest night
Don't give up or you'll lose the fight
And just remember that you're not alone
There's billions more who know exactly what you're
Going through
On the big blue wheel
On the big blue wheel
On the big blue wheel
On the big blue wheel
