You can sometimes see it coming
But often it's too late
By the time you see the ominos falling
It's too late to escape
They are placed one by one
You knock one over then it's done

At first you think
You can control it
It even seems like fun
That's just your mind
It's in denial
The Domino Effect has already come

One event leads to another
So smoothly they fly
Sometimes it's a quick trip
Only a few dominos to flip
Far to often
It's a catastrophic event
When the dominos are laid for us
We really don't know
We watch and we wait
For the next domino show
We hope that we'll be lucky
And escape its cold embrace
Once the dominos start falling
You're in fates grace
