lyrics

Not too many moons ago
we used to race
around the parking lot
But we’ve grown tired
of the things we know
You’ll win, I’ll place
as long as no one’s shot
we’ll call it good
as if we never understood
All they do is pick a side
then grab your chair and let the money ride
The jack of spades won’t win the queen of hearts
The king of diamonds had her from the start
It’s not his passion
just the circuits of his brain
Yet another way
to ease each other’s pain

Johnny, count ‘til 21
but don’t go over, for it’s no more fun
Did no one tell you when this life begun
that losing burns you hotter than the sun
could ever burn?
Oh Johnny, will you never learn?
There’s no way to roll the dice
You place your bets, but then you pay the price
for taking aim at things you’re bound to miss
for chasing girls you’re never gonna kiss
It’s not a gamble,
but a circus for the slaves
yet another way
to keep them in their caves

you can hear them breaking
one by one…
