Текст песни The Bug, Dire Straits

well it s a strange old game - you learn it slow
one step forward and it s back to go
you re standing on the throttle
you re standing on the breaks
in the groove til you make a mistake

sometimes you re the windshield
sometimes you re the bug
sometimes it all comes together baby
sometimes you re a fool in love
sometimes you re the louisville slugger
sometimes you re the ball
sometimes it all comes together baby
sometimes you re going to lose it all

you gotta know happy - you gotta know glad
because you re gonna know lonely
and you re gonna know bad
when you re rippin and a ridin
and you re coming on strong
you start slippin and slidin
and it all goes wrong because

sometimes you re the windshield
sometimes you re the bug
sometimes it all comes together baby
sometimes you re a fool in love
sometimes you re the louisville slugger baby
sometimes you re the ball
sometimes it all comes together baby
sometimes you re going to lose it all

one day you got the glory
one day you got none
one day you re a diamond
and then you re a stone
everything can change
in the blink of an eye
so let the good times roll
before we say goodbye, because

sometimes you re the windshield
sometimes you re the bug
sometimes it all comes together baby
sometimes you re a fool in love
sometimes you re the louisville slugger baby
sometimes you re the ball
sometimes it all comes together baby
sometimes you re going to lose it all
