Kings and Queens Lyrics

Some say there is justice in this world.

Life is one big gamble I’ve been told.

Sometimes people throw the lucky die.

Others when they crumble run and hide.

We’ll listen to all that you say, but when we get the chance to talk.

Through muddy waters we’ll clumsily wade, your mind’s already made.

For you are the kings and the queens, and we are the pawns, we’ll do as you say.

What choice do we have but to play this old game, we’ve been here before, we don’t wanna play.

We promise to keep our mouths shut very tight as we cast you aside one by one.

Someone winds the key, you make your move.

Clockwork people doing what they do.

Who is it that really makes the rules.

If we think it’s you then who’s the fool.

We’ll listen to all that you say, but when we get the chance to talk.

Through muddy waters we’ll clumsily wade, your minds already made.

For you are the kings and the queens, and we are the pawns, we’ll do as you say.

What choice do we have but to play this old game, we’ve been here before, we don’t wanna play.

We promise to keep our mouths shut very tight as we cast you aside one by one.

We’ll listen to all that you say, but when we get the chance to talk.

Through muddy waters we’ll clumsily wade, your minds already made.

For you are the kings and the queens, and we are the pawns, we’ll do as you say.

What choice do we have but to play this old game, we’ve been here before, we don’t wanna play.

We promise to keep our mouths shut very tight as we cast you aside one by one.

Do not speak your anger in this room.

If you don’t speak softly we’ll assume.

That your words are tainted and absurd.

If the egg shell cracks, we’ll shoot the bird.

You’ll listen to all that we say, but if you get the chance to talk.

Through muddy waters you’ll clumsily wade, our mind’s already made.

For we are the kings and the queens and you are the pawns you’ll do as we say.

What choice do you have but to play this old game, we’ve been here before, you don’t wanna play.

You promised to keep your mouths shut very tight as we cast you aside one by one.
