Lyrics

The King of Spades' daughter
Is peering at the centre of your soul
The King of Spades' daughter
Is making plans for you and you
The card shark at the table
Is watching your every move
He ruffles and shuffles the deck of life
Then deals you straight from the sleeve
You know the cards can shed a little light
But will you ever learn to read them right?
Please take a card from the deck of life
Return it to the pack wherever you like
Now remember that card well
It will return bit in someone else's trick
The card shark at the table
Is watching your every move
He ruffles and shuffles the deck of life
Then deals you straight from the sleeve
You know the cards can shed a little light
But will you ever learn read them right?
The card shark at the table
Is watching your every move
The King of Spades' daughter
She's there, she's lying in wait for you
You know the cards can shed a little light
But will you ever learn read them right?
