lyrics

I like Scrabble I like darts
but not the games you play with men’s hearts
If the decision were up to me
I would take my heart out of the deck
cause spades and clubs may rust and wear
all in search of a diamond
but you threw me a wildcard.

but I got a couple of tricks up my sleeve of my own
yes it’s true
I didn’t always play the game that way
but I used to end up so sad and blue

if the decision were up to me
I would take my heart out of the deck
cause F-2, F-3, F-4 It’s like Battleship
this relationships sinking
but I didn’t want to get in the ship
I just wanted to swim in the ocean
so I guess I threw you a wildcard

cause who’s to say who wins and who looses?
when we’re all playing different games.
some are looking for the one; others are just looking for someone…
I like Apples to Apples, but it’s all tomato, Ta-MA-toe to ya
So after all these ridiculous games of charades
Thanksgiving Day parades
happy birthday suit, on the 3rd of July
ee gotta stop treating each other like pawns in our crazy schemes
cause no matter how invincible you think you are
we are all at the mercy of dice

cause who’s to say who wins and who looses?
when we’re all playing different games.
some are looking for the one; others are just looking for some fun…
so tell me, how much fun is it?
when who’s to say who wins and who looses?
when we’re all playing different games
some are looking for the one; others are just looking for someone

I like Scrabble I like darts
but not the games that you play with men’s hearts
If the decision were up to me, I would take my heart out of the deck
cause spades and clubs may rust and wear all in search of a diamond
but it’s all just a deck of wildcards.
