I watch the game

Aware of tricks

I do not want to see

I do not want to see

A card is palmed

The bets are placed

The loaded dice make three

And no one sees but me

Does no one see but me?

The roulette wheel

Goes round and round

And stops a bit too short

It's made to stop too short

It's built to stop too short

The chips are down

The croupier laughs

And calls a cheated player sport

He laughs and calls him sport

And the sport laughs with him

The sport laughs with him

There are no clocks

Upon the gilded walls

The drapes are drawn

In everlasting night

"we never close"

The neon light

Blinks at the sky

"we run an honest house"

The advertisements lie

For i have chanced to glimpse

Behind the imitation

Antique mirror

And i have seen the pupil

Of the boss's

Spying eye

Pontius pilate's soldiers

Gambled at the bottom of the cross

Even his ragged robe was lost

So would you kinda care

To tell me boss

What chance have we?

What chance have we?

Would you kinda care

To tell me boss?

I watch the game

And if i play

I know i'll go for broke

It must be go for broke

The game is fixed

It's just a

Funny

Foolish

Never ending joke

A never ending joke

The dealer winks

And beckons

With a toothless

Taunting grin

I know i cannot win

The game is fixed

Okay all right

Okay all right

Okay all right

God damn it

Deal

Me

In.
