The Unexpected

Be on guard twenty four-seven
There'll be no warning shot
Keep looking over your shoulder
Protecting what you've got

Take a look from the dark side
Optimism don't get a chance
Be ready for a rough ride
Brace yourself for the last dance

It's lightning striking twice
You're rolling loaded dice
Expect the unexpected
And expect it all your life

Are they lurking round the corner
When you step off the curb
There's no one there to warn you
You think you've lost your nerve

Take a look from the dark side
Optimism don't get a chance
Be ready for a rough ride
Brace yourself for the last dance

It's lightning striking twice
You're rolling loaded dice
Expect the unexpected
And expect it all your life

The knife it twists and twists
A tension still exists
Don't relax, you ain't got time
Lick your wounds, get on with it

Your peace and quiet gets shattered
You're sure that you are next
You've got no-one to turn to
Cus your theory's perplex

Take a look from the dark side
Optimism don't get a chance
Be ready for a rough ride
Brace yourself for the last dance

Lightning striking twice
Rolling loaded dice
Expect the unexpected
And expect it all your life

Lightning striking twice
Rolling loaded dice
Expect the unexpected
And expect it all your life
