The Turn Of A Friendly Card

Alan Parsons

[I. The Turn Of A Friendly Card - Part 1]
There are unsmiling faces and bright plastic chains
And a wheel in perpetual motion
And they follow the races and pay out the gains
With no show of an outward emotion

And they think it will make their lives easier
For God knows up till now it's been hard

But the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
No, the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card

Therе's a sign in the desert that liеs to the west
Where you can't tell the night from the sunrise
And not all the king's horses and all the king's men
Have prevented the fall of the unwise

For they think it will make their lives easier
And God knows up till now it's been hard

But the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
No, the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card

But a pilgrim must follow in search of a shrine
As he enters inside the cathedral

[II. Snake Eyes]
Snake eyes
Seven eleven
Don't let me down, boys

Gimme snake eyes
Seven eleven
Don't let me down tonight
No, don't let me down tonight

Just one minute more
Give me just one minute more
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

Just one minute more
Then I'll walk right through that door
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

If ya gimme
Snake eyes
Seven eleven
Don't let me down now

Gimme snake eyes
Staring at heaven
Don't let me down tonight
No, don't let me down tonight

Just one minute more
Gimme just one minute more
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

But you gotta
Gimme one minute more
Gimme one more, gimme one minute more
It's gonna be alright, it's gonna be alright

Snake eyes
Seven eleven
Don't let me down, boys

Snake eyes
Seven eleven
Don't let me down tonight
No, don't let me down tonight

Just one minute more
Then I'll walk right through that door
It's gonna be alright
It's gonna be alright

But'cha gotta
Gimme one more marker more, then I'll walk right through that door
Gimme one more, don't let me down
It's gonna be alright, alright, alright

[III. The Ace of Swords]

[IV. Nothing Left to Lose]
Nothing's good, the news is bad
The heat goes on and it drives you mad
Scornful thoughts that fly your way
You should turn away cause there's nothing more to say

You gave the best you had to give
You only have one life to live
You fought so hard you were a slave
After all you gave, there was nothing left to save

You've got nothing left to lose (you've got nothing left to lose)
No, you've got nothing left to lose (who'd wanna be standing in your shoes)

You read the book, you turn the page
You change your life in a thousand ways
The dawn of reason lights your eyes
With the key you realise to the kingdom of the wise

You've got nothing left to lose (you've got nothing left to lose)
No, you've got nothing left to lose (who'd wanna be standing in your shoes)

Nothing ventured, nothing gained
No more lingering doubt remained
Nothing sacred or profane
Everything to gain cause you've nothing left

[Snake Eyes Reprise]

[V. The Turn of a Friendly Card - Part 2]
There are unsmiling faces in fetters and chains
On a wheel in perpetual motion
Who belong to all races and answer all names
With no show of an outward emotion

And they think it will make their lives easier
But the doorway before them is barred

And the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
No, the game never ends when your whole world depends
On the turn of a friendly card
