Bastion Walk

The table is green

but the house is cold

They think I am buying

what has just been sold (tsk,

please)

But I see the mark

on the back of the card

And playing their game

isn't very hard

I'm leaving with the crown tonight (oh yeah) Walking out under the

dim street light

No second guessing, I hold the hand

I'm the only one who understands

They watch my hands,

they watch my eyes

But they missed the shift,

to their surprise (ha) I keep the jokers,

I take the spade

That is how a clean

getaway is made

I'm leaving with the crown tonight (that's right) Walking out under the

dim street light

No second guessing, I hold the hand

I'm the only one who understands I

hold the hand (hummmm)
