Fox (take Your Chances)

At night my body aches

for your warmth under the sheets

I ached myself awake

and opened the window

I got a bucket-full in the face

the snow came down in sheets

I had to have a taste

of some that gathered on the sill

Do what you will

to make you feel

'cos life is dull as sin most of the time

take your chances now

The horizons black with smoke

they say there is no hope

this is the coming of the lord

but he's not got to us yet

so maybe I should read a book

or cover my face with soot

or I could kiss you on the mouth

I've always wanted to do that

Do what you will

to make you feel

'cos life is dull as sin most of the time

take your chances now
