The Game |
The bar was dark and quiet and still |
And nothing could be heard, the dust lay undisturbed |
At a table near the back, underneath a fan |
Two men shared a joke about the normal folk |
The cards are on the table, the winner takes it all |
The game is nearly over, one man about to fall |
Well, I don’t believe in Heaven, I don’t believe in Hell |
I don’t believe what I’m seeing, this is no game, can’t you tell, no |
«I'm calling your bluff», the first man said |
The people went to war, they always wanted more |
And how could I ever fail to lose? |
They can’t take it any more, they want to end the score |
The second man showed his hand some walked barefoot across the land |
And many have seen the future and are doing the best they can |
Well, I don’t believe in Heaven I don’t believe in Hell |
I don’t believe what I’m seeing this is no game, can’t you tell, good God! |
Oh well, I don’t believe in Heaven, I don’t believe in Hell |
I don’t believe what I’m seeing, this is no game, can’t you tell |
The clock ticked past the final hour |
Now which of the men had lost and what was the cost? |
The glasses now were empty and gone |
To wash away the shame and take away the pain |
One man left the table, the other with head in hands |
Paid the bill for the defeated the only thing left that stands |
Well, I don’t believe in Heaven I don’t believe in Hell |
I don’t believe what I’m seeing this is no game, can’t you tell, no |
Well, I don’t believe in Heaven I don’t believe in Hell |
I don’t believe what I’m seeing this is no game, can’t you tell, no |
