[Current Music |Rush, "Roll the Bones"]

Although the wording changes on subsequent instances, the 1st chorus on "Roll the Bones" starts with, "We come out in the world / and take our chances…" It changes later to "come into," but considering all the gambling imagery in the song, the original phrasing is no fluke. In Craps, the first roll by a new shooter is called the "come out roll."

Not insulting the intelligence of anyone here. Just something I didn't notice until I started going to casinos and learning about casino gaming.
