They say that even Jesus hates a loser
|
And when you die you go to hockey hell
|
And when your soul gets sent down,
|
There'll be the devil skatin¡¯ round
|
And an interview with Howard Cosell.
|
|
Well, some call him a jet-set gladiator,
|
Some say he's a soldier in a bloody silver war.
|
But he's one hell of a warrior ?
|
He's got a good lawyer
|
And every time he crosses that line you can hear that garden roar.
|
|
And he keeps on skatin¡¯ on thin ice
|
Just six inches from paradise
|
Livin¡¯ on the ice, lovin¡¯ on the run.
|
He keeps on skatin¡¯ on thin ice
|
Just six inches from paradise,
|
Written in the stars, meltin¡¯ in the sun.
|
|
Well, he scored again last night out in Vancouver,
|
You might say that it was on a power play.
|
He come in close, he shut the light,
|
Before his teeth came out that night,
|
In the morning it was hell to break away.
|
|
Through northern lights and southern nights there¡¯s someone
|
Who warms your heart as you shiver from the cold.
|
But every gypsy, every lover, every dreamer must discover
|
What you win out on the ice, you¡¯re gonna lose out out on the road.
|
|
And he keeps on skatin¡¯ on thin ice
|
Just six inches from paradise
|
Livin¡¯ on the ice, lovin¡¯ on the run.
|
He keeps skatin¡¯ on thin ice
|
Just six inches from paradise
|
Written in the stars, boy, meltin¡¯ in the sun.
|
Written in the stars, boy, meltin¡¯ in the sun.
