I always believed in futures   I hope for better in November   I try the same losing lucky numbers   It could be a cold night, for a lifetime   Hey now, you can't keep saying endlessly   My darling, how long until this affects me?      Say hello to good times   Trade up for the fast ride   We close our eyes while the nickel and dime   Take the streets completely      I always could count on futures   That things will look up and they look up   Why is it so hard to find a balance   Between living decent and the cold and real   Hey now, what is it you think you see?   My darling, now's the time to disagree      Say hello to good times   Trade up for the fast ride   We close our eyes while the nickel and dime   Take the streets completely      Hey now, the past is told by those who win, my darling   What matters is what hasn't been   Hey now, we're wide awake and we're thinking   My darling, believe your voice can mean something      Say hello to good times   Trade up for the fast ride   We close our eyes while the nickel and dime   Take the streets completely      We close our eyes and the nickel and dime   Take the streets completely
