LYRICS:
Hey you, would you like to play?
Promise it won’t take all day!
Come on now, what do you say?
So you’ll stay?
ONE!
TWO!
THREE!
Walk in like you own the place
That was your first mistake
Then you see a friendly face
But don’t know what I’ll take
Would you like to play a game?
(That’s what I always say)
But they never leave the same
Not after they have played!
Place your bets!
Place your bets!
Anything besides death!
Not that I can’t collect
Just that that one’s kinda boring!
Bet an arm!
Bet a leg!
Bet your charm!
But don’t beg
Cause what you lose
Is mine for good
So let me knock you down a peg!
Aw, too bad!
It looks like I won again!
Guess that means I’ll take your grin!
Oh, but next time you might win!
Why not have another spin?
So what if the game is rigged?
I bet you could win it big!
Just put it all on the line!
Keep on betting till you’re
MINE!
And the cards fall
And the dice roll
And I think isn’t it wonderful?
To play a game
That you never lose
Cause you’re the one who made all the rules!
Then one comes and bets their name
That means they know the game
I admit I’m kinda scared
I hate when games are fair
So I match their bet in kind
(I’m sure the boss won’t mind)
I have more than ample skill
to beat a fool with time to kill!
Place your bets!
Place your bets!
The house demands
You bring your best!
And I warn you
That I refuse
To lose a game of my design!
Bet your soul!
Bet your name!
In the end
it’s all the same!
You know the rules?
Well good for you
But in the end you’re still a-
What?!
That’s not right!
That can’t be!
The winner is
always me!
What did you have
that I can’t see?!
How could you claim victory?
Weighted dice!
Silver tongue!
Words hid when
the deed was done!
I admit
I’ve been outdone.
Still, I guess that it’s been fun!
