lyrics

The cards are marked
The dice are loaded
And the world’s a game that’s been rigged
The ferris wheel goes ‘round & ‘round
And it’s always the carny kid who’s to blame
And the story it’s always the same
Big man’s inside his Palazzo
While the lil’man scrambles in the streets
And that’s exactly where they’ll both stay
Until the world stops going ‘round & ‘round
And the story it’s always the same
You know cities are built upon bones
And History is written by the victors
And it’s always written
And it’s always written in fever and ashes and blood
Your eyes bulge beholding her beauty
But beauty demands a high price
When the fog lifts
And the winds shift
Things are rarely what they seem
And you heard it all before
And the story it’s always the same

Is it Blues?
Is it Avantgarde folk?
Or is it simply Rock ‘n’ Roll?
The answer is: YES!
