i like the music and the singing. very nice for me to see which ways you can work the word "odds" because i didn't really know any but "what are the odds".
love the pro/con list verse and image. that's so familiar;)

hope the spinning goes well:)
cheers,

verse. the full house metaphor implies you want to start a family with her, to me at least, which is a very powerful statement. the other two verses don't really reinforce it.

i think you're trying to hard to just use expressions and metaphors and fill up the requirements, while the story itself, or imagery, is kind of lacking. it doesn't really go anywhere. i hope that's not too brutal of an assessment.]]> Sunday Songwriters Group Anonymous https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-51-spin/#post-205633 https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-51-spin/#post-205630 Thu, 26 Oct 2006 03:19:43 +0000

Spin
©2006 Robert Gowland

Don't leave it up to a coin toss
I'll land face down
Don't leave it up to a roll of the dice
I'll crap out
But I'm willing to be these cards
Can make a full house

I don't know what odds to give
But standing here we'll never win
So grab your keys
And buckle in
Take lady luck out for a spin

You're adding up the pros and cons
On your list
All you've found is the odds are
Even split
In this game that about
As good as it gets

I don't know what odds to give
But standing here we'll never win
So grab your keys
And buckle in
Take lady luck out for a spin

You've got too much riding
Too much riding on this
Lighten up a bit
Take lady luck out for a spin]]> Sunday Songwriters Group SlowPlay https://guitarnoise.forum/sunday-songwriters-group/ssg4-week-51-spin/#post-21350
