All above board
And we see nothing
Clean and empty hands
But still thereÂ’s something lurking
We believe you when you lie
Buy your word, then you deny
Pay your wealth, you leave us high and dry

You gamester
You tell us
Our fortunes by your cards
And youÂ’re rubbing yourself deep
Into our wounds.

You gamester
You fool us
We watch your spinning wheel
And we scratch
And we itch
And the longer it takes for us
To heal

You promise ten birds
But in the bush
Each and every sunday
Sell your “letters of indulgence”
We believe you when you lie
Buy your word, then you deny,
Pay your wealth, you leave us high and dry

You gamester
You tell us
Our fortunes by your cards
And youÂ’re rubbing yourself deep
Into our wounds.

You gamester
You fool us
We watch your spinning wheel
And we scratch
And we itch
And the longer it takes for us
To heal

A cheaterÂ’s armoury
A cheaterÂ’s armoury
CheaterÂ’s armoury

You gamester
You tell us
Our fortunes by your cards
And youÂ’re rubbing yourself deep
Into our wounds.

You gamester
You fool us
We watch your spinning wheel
And we scratch
And we itch
And the longer it takes for us
To heal
You gamester
You fool us
We watch your spinning wheel
And we scratch
And we itch
And the longer it takes for us
To heal

All youÂ’ve got is shifty eyes
A black dress, a false name
