I placed my bets and lost again
keep backing the wrong horse
Lady Luck crept out of the bed
she's nothing but a cheap whore
The chips I've had since I was a boy
long lost before I became a man
my poker face slapped and destroyed
by a woman with a flash hand
black cards in her fingers fanned
diamond eyes flashed as I ran
Does Duchess Fate have love for me?
does she kiss as the wind speaks?
or will she claw my back until it bleeds
Laughing hard as the claret seeps?
Madame Fortune, when do I turn the tide
Or do the scales keep leaning your way?
Bad Idea making luck your bride
Win or lose, the bitch makes you pay
from now til your dying day
she sweeps up your ashes and blows them away
