Lyrics

Bending the rules of a late night card game
Where the loser removes an item of clothing
You're dreading each deal, so urgent and grave
Have a shufty over your shoulder
Well, it's a shady game

And I want to lose
Please, let me lose
Oh, please, let me lose
It's nothing to you, it's nothing to you

This reshuffled pack brings back the sick curse of luck
Because the Ace in my hand is such a shock
Exchanging King for your Two while you're out of the room
Have a shufty over your shoulder
Well, all the same, it's a shady game

I want to lose
Oh, please let me lose
Oh, Please let me lose
it's nothing to you
it's nothing to you

I'm cutting this Queen
Well, this Six is chewed
You're all undisguised
I'm stuck on shoes

So have you ever met a bad winner?
"Well how do you do?"

Jack!
Ace!
Queen!
King!
No!
No-no!
No-no!
No-no!

No...
No...
No...
They won't let me lose

I'm bending the rules of a late night card game
