[Intro]
\nPut your cards on the table
\n(Read ’em… and weep)<\/p>\n

[Verse 1]
\nAre you sure
\nYou want to play high stakes
\n(No matter what it takes)
\nWill you endure<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nAre you able….
\n(Or is the price too steep)
\nPut your cards on the table
\n(Read ’em… and weep)<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nA pair of twos
\n(Is that all you have)
\nWell, as you choose
\n(Have is now half)<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nYou lose<\/p>\n

[Verse 2]
\nPut your money
\n(Where your mouth is)
\nPop quiz!
\nYou ready, honey?<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nAre you able….
\n(Or is the price too steep)
\nPut your cards on the table
\n(Read ’em… and weep)<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nA pair of twos
\n(Is that all you have)
\nWell, as you choose
\n(Have is now half)<\/p>\n

[Bridge]
\nYou lose
\nAre you able….
\n(Or is the price too steep)
\nPut your cards on the table
\n(Read ’em… and weep)<\/p>\n

[Chorus]
\nA pair of twos
\n(Is that all you have)
\nWell, as you choose
\n(Have is now half)<\/p>\n

[Outro]
\n… of what it use to be
\n(Can you see….)
\nThe irony:
\nA royal flush
\n(Hush, hush, hush)<\/p>\n
