there's
no one here to pay the price of shame
so
we must meet to argue the full toss
as
if the whole adventure were a game
you'd
think to come out here to some acclaim
expect
to end the day as chief or boss
there's
no one here to pay the price of shame
it
seems to me the story's rather tame
we
were sent out to bear a paltry cross
as
if the whole adventure were a game
you
are the victim of some sort of fame
who
watched as gold turned into vulgar dross
there's
no one here to pay the price of shame
in
time we will find ways to spread the blame
and
then apply a soothing sort of gloss
as
if the whole adventure were a game
our
final task is to put out the flame
and
make quite sure that you absorb the loss
there's
no one here to pay the price of shame
as
if the whole adventure were a game
