Sine Qua Non

Friday's Blast From the Past

In honor of the impending demise of Saddam Hussein, I give you Motorhead and the Ace of Spades.

If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, lose some, it's all the same to me
The pleasure is to play, it makes no difference what you say
I don't share your greed, the only card I need is
The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades
Playin' for the high one, dancin' with the devil
Going with the flow, it's all a game to me
7 or 11, snake eyes watching you
Double up or quit, double stake or split
The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades
You know I'm born to lose
And gamblin's made for fools
But that's the way I like it baby
I don't want to live forever
And don't forget the joker
Pushing up the ante, I know you got to see me
read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die
The only thing you see, you know it's gonna be
The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Spades
