joker's wild

some time ago
i made my way
down to the crossroads
to try my lucky hand
at the devil's gaming table

at first i held my own
with what was being dealt
i was so damn cock-sure
i'd covered all the angles

i knew full well
the nature of the game
i knew full well
the nature of the dealer

it's what i didn't know
that proved to seal my fate
i found out far too late
the game that i was playing
was the specialty of the house

a little number called....

joker's wild !
