Lyrics

SHUFFLE THE DECK

We?ve been living in a house of cards
one strong breeze and we?ll be left flat

Fooled by the gambler?s philosopy:
you just write the check,
and when you don?t like the cards we see
you shuffle the deck

Now the kings they?ve been caught,
their aces were all ones
they lied about their value,
They lied like thieves and cons

The cards will get you money for
your clear and present need
to multiply your army to
fulfill your total greed

We can take away the deck of cards
We can get the dealer laid
but we?re never got change
the way the game is played
