Play it safe, they want you to.  Bet it all and you might lose.
It’s good advice, for a sterile life, cause risk is right.

What happened to the brave young child – fighting danger in his mind?
He traded fate for a job he hates, but gets him by.

Risk is right, would you lay down your life?
Risk is right, would you lay down your life?
Risk is right.  Would you die for your brother, die for another?  Risk is right.

Baby, safety’s a façade.  Either way we play the odds.
A lazy life is worse than a failure tried, cause risk is right.

We only have one chance to play.  And life’s too short to be afraid!
