Poker

[Jeff Lynne and Kelly Groucutt]
Away, the joker's closing in
Reform and they will win
The light is fading fast
I know, you know, they know, we all know
Everybody's gonna burn down

[Jeff Lynne and Kelly Groucutt]
The girls come crawling on all fours
Banging on locked doors
High cards call the tune
I know, you know, they know, we all know
Everybody's gonna burn down

[ Jeff Lynne and Kelly Groucutt]
Play me another hand

Lose everything I am
Until we meet again

[Jeff Lynne and Kelly Groucutt]
The ace that's hiding up your sleeve
Will cause the world to grieve
The love you had is gone
I know you know, they know, we all know

[Jeff Lynne and Kelly Groucutt]
The dream in every player's heart
To win it all, not part
They lie awake at night
I know, you know, they know, we all know

[Jeff Lynne and Kelly Groucutt]
The game where gamblers rule the night
And get your blood they might

The joker's closin' in
I know, you know, they know, we all know
