"In the Lap of the Gods" is, according to Mercury himself, the direct prelude to "Bohemian Rhapsody" and the A Night at the Opera album in general. There are fast piano arpeggios as in "Death on Two Legs" and some multi-tracked harmonies. Taylor provided the screams, which he proved weren't artificially created when he did them every night during their world tour.
Lyrics:
[Intro] Aaah, aaah, aaah, aaaaaaaaah Aaa-aaaah, aah (uu-uh) Aah, leave it in the lap of the gods [Verse] I live my life for you Think all my thoughts With you and only you Anything you ask I do, for you I touch your lips with mine But in the end, I leave it to the lords Leave it in the lap of the gods What more can I do? [Chorus] Leave it in the lap of the gods (I leave it to you) Leave it in the lap of the gods Leave it in the lap of the gods (I want you to) (Aaaaaaaah) Leave it in the lap of the gods Leave it in the lap of the gods (Aaaaaaaah) Leave it in the lap of the gods [Outro] Lap of the gods Lap of the gods (Aaaaaaaaah) Lap of the gods (Aaaaaaaaah) Lap of the gods Lap of the gods Lap of the gods Lap of the gods [Solo]
