Joker

Joker the Old Maid is drawn

She's a wild gal to stumble upon

Carte Blanche and the Queen is gone

It put out the blaze he was betting on

I was once a Queen, but I was no royal spawn

I can be your ace in the hole, your black-painted swan

Not a card short of the deck, don't forget

A screw or two loose, you best bet

The Jester laughs and dances a lone minuet

It's the fall of the cards, and you get what you get
