I also love it. It was an instant favorite since the album came out and i was surprised and happy to get this one in padova.
Also Jeff wrote similar songs in his solo albums.

I love the guitars and of course the bass...Ed´s delivery is good too. Its such a cool little punk song but it also has a different vibe to it...kinda like a mix between R.E.M., Guided By Voices and The Replacements.

It's out of my hands, making all hands meet
Stumble as it's crumbling out of reach
It's in the cards of destiny
Your sanity in tow
Designate my luck
Resignate
This power has no roots to guide, no role
Trust me, rusted minds refuse to go
Unwillingness, it's meaningless
To walk away in vain
Designate my will
Designate my will
Resignate
My will is crashing, synapses flashing slow
Days like frame by frame, where do they go'
Yeah, why fight' forget it
Can't I spend it after I go'
Roll them high
Throw them again
All Gods' dice
Monkey driven, call this living, ha ha ha
Too much thought, it's overwrought, a hole
Minding yours, what's mine, not yours
Will finish us off
Designate my life
Designate a view
Designate my will, my will, my will, I will
Resignate my god

Songwriter: Jeff Ament

Just listened to this on my best of 2000s Pearl Jam playlist. I feel this is probably the most underrated song on RM. I keep seeing at the bottom of various lists. For me it's top tier Pearl Jam.

I totally absolutely agree. It’s a fantastic song.

And Stip, don’t you dare merge/close this! :P

The song is written wrong in the title. It's Gods' Dice. That's why I couldn't find a thread.

I only look at View new posts. Which is probably why I don't see such things. But I did search first. Found no thread for the song.

Thank you for the advice and the change of title.

It sure sounds like Hail, Hail (take 2), but it's a good song.

I remember being hooked by it the first time I listened to Binaural and Touring Band 2000. The vocal delivery is perfect and the band show a nice synergy !

I've never cared much for this song. They should have dropped this one and put "Fatal" on the record
