Lyrics

Verse 1
King's gone mad, the Jokers wild
Breaking all the rules
Many follow and obey
Play the Jokers fool

Dealer makes another deal
Keep your fingers crossed
The deck's been stacked, you cannot win
But he's already lost

Chorus
Joker's wild
Dead mans hand
Call his bluff
Take a stand

The Joker's wild
Cold hearted Queen
One-eyed Jack
Suicide King

Verse 2
Trying to see through this masquerade
Caught here in the fog
Everything's not the way it seems
Set the stage, wag the dog

Slight of hand is all they know
Only make believe
Looks so real, enjoy the show
It's so easy to deceive

Chorus
Joker's wild
Dead mans hand
Call his bluff
Take a stand

The Joker's wild
Cold hearted Queen
One-eyed Jack
Suicide King

Bridge
Another deal, another bribe
Another trick, another lie
So many caught up in their web
And they spin it how they want

Another puppet on the Jokers string
Another clown dressed up like a royal king
While all the paupers with their faces covered take a knee and sing

Chorus
Joker's wild
Dead mans hand
Call his bluff
Take a stand

The Joker's wild
Cold hearted Queen
One-eyed Jack
Suicide King
