Was it a real life?
Was it just fantasy?
Stuck in a tourney
Oh that was my reality
Opened my eyes
Looked around the pub to see...
I was a TD,
Needing no sympathy
It was easy come
Easy go
Ratings high
Now they're low
Anyway the rulings go
Never really mattered to me...
To me
Marshy, just lost a game
Put a gun against his head
Pulled the trigger, now he's dead
Luca, went to fuck the corpse,
But Marshy, he got up and ran away
Marshy ooo-oo-ooo,
Didn't mean to make you cry
If you're still a virgin this time tomorrow...
Carry on, carry on, as if nothing really matters
Too late, we quit the game
Reached the end of the line
It had taken all our time
Goodbye Decipher, we had to go
Had to leave it all behind and face the truth
Big D ooo-oo-ooo (anyway the game goes)
I don't want it to die
But sometimes I wish I'd never played it at all
(guitar solo)
I saw a lot of pot-en-tial in the game
AMS, AMS, I used the Vulcan Stone of Gol
DT's decks like lightning, very very frightening me
Empathic Echo, Empathic Echo
Empathic Echo, Empathic Echo
Empathic Echo and Keogh - magnifico...
I was a TD - everybody loved me,
He was a TD from Big D's family,
But I spared my life from that monstrosity!
Easy come, easy go, Big D let me go...
Current ruling! no, we will not let you go
Let him go!
Current ruling! no, we will not let you go
Let him go!
Current ruling! no, we will not let you go
Let me go!
Will not let you go
Let me go!
Will not let you go
Never let me go!
No, no, no, no, no, no, no...
Oh Marcus Sheppard, Marcus Sheppard, Marcus Sheppard let me go...
The Poker Gods have a table set aside for me, for me, for me...
(another guitar solo)
So you think I quit Trek to go drinking with Pie?
So you think I could love Trek and leave it to die?
Oh Big D... don't say that of me Big D
I had to get out - just had to get right outta there
(yet another guitar solo)
It never really mattered,
Anyone can see,
It never really mattered, never really mattered to me
Any way the game goes...
