Roulette
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Bet the black, comes in red
Crimes of passion rule my head
I need you, you want him, dressed to kill
We live in sin
I know the game you play, I know it well
You just keep on playin' when all the bets are down
Roulette, goin' round in a spin
Caught up in a game you can't win
Roulette, you're just a fantasy
Its everything that you want it to be
Play the numbers one by one
Fire the shot and the damage is done
Restless lovers pay the price
Cheating hearts don't think twice
When you make the rules
No one can slow you down
You just keep 'em waiting
When you're on the prowl
Roulette, goin' round in a spin
Caught up in a game you can't win
Roulette, you're just a fantasy
Its everything that you want it to be
Backdoor runner got away this time
Leaves her mark at the scene of the crime
Nothing matters no faces no names
You're just a number, its all the same
You just love to play the game
I know the game you play, I know it well
You just keep on playin' when all the bets are down
Roulette, goin' round in a spin
Caught up in a game you can't win
Roulette, you're just a fantasy
Its everything that you want it to be
