What's In A Deck Of Cards?
Father Einstein

Intro

Whats in a deck of cards? Martin asks the Dealer,

Sitting at a poker table in a dark casino.

Verse 1

The King of Hearts lifts up his eyes as classical music starts to play,

And now he sees his blushing Bride, just a stones throw away.

The Queen of Spades walks down the aisle, and passes all the Aces,

The Joker bows and laughs out loud, they all have happy faces.

Chorus

Whats in a deck of cards?

Have they secret lives?

Passions that they cant deny?

Verse 2

Shes nearly at the alter now, ready to tie the knot,

But theres a lump down in her throat, theres a bomb set to drop.

She knows she cant throw in the towel, that theres no turning back,

And just as they join hands, she sees the One Eyed Jack.

Repeat Chorus

Verse 3

I love you cries the One Eyed Jack, as tears flow down his cheeks,

And in the heat of the moment the Queen falls to her knees.

The King turns round and screams out loud, wishing to save his sinking ship,

And scowling gives the order, Beat him with the whip!

Repeat Chorus

Verse 4

The Aces and the six of clubs pick up the One Eyed Jack,

Toss him into the chapel yard, then they say Dont come back!.

The King of Hearts turns to his Bride, takes out the wedding ring,

And places it on her finger, the choir starts to sing.

Repeat Chorus

End

In the late night bar, the Dealer checks the pack,

And she thinks to herself, Thats strange, were missing a One Eyed Jack.
