Arabian Derby (Album Version)

I never feared the rain
Until you turned to me and said it failed again
It makes a perfect day so lame
And leads us halfway to nowhere
So the players have changed
Soon we'll memorize the names
But somehow something's never quite the same
Still we stake a claim, you can count us in again

And everyone's a winner baby
Hedge your bets, get set
And maybe we could be the first to cross the line
Get up, get set, get ready
Get high, get low, get even
Cause we're living in the middle of style
Chasing the ultimate prize

You'd make a fine millionaire
It's only natural to celebrate
But someone's got to be there to pay
And we never get there
So take some time on our own
We burn enough alone
Close but still not fully grown
Pulling marrow from a bone
But there's no turning back, so count us in again

And everyone's a winner baby
Hedge your bets, get set
And maybe we could be the first to cross the line
Everyone's a winner baby
Everyone's a winner baby

Going back to the old house
The marigolds just go to show that some of us
Should never have left home
But see I'm still counting
Another flash in the pan
A cheap and instant forming tan
It seems to grow on me
Taking inches from a mile
No change there, but I'm all for throwing it on the line

Cause everyone's a winner baby
Hedge your bets, get set
And maybe we could be the first to cross the line
Get up, get set, get ready
Get high, get low, get even
Cause we're living in the middle of style
Chasing the ultimate prize

Oh, everyone's a winner baby
Oh, everyone's a winner baby
Everyone's a winner baby
Baby
