VERSE 1 We roll the dice and we play the game. Oh, but the odds still seem to stay the same. Yet, we still keep comin' back for more. Oh, won't you tell me what we do it all for. CHORUS 1 Where's the reason for it? Well, there's no reason for it. Can't you see it's just a game we play for God? VERSE 2 D'ya feel that you been dealt a lousy hand? D'ya say goodbye to all the things you'd planned? D'ya ask yourself the question: "Why me?" D'ya wonder who's been fuckin' with your destiny? CHORUS 2 Where's the reason for it? Well, there's no reason for it. Can't you see it's just a game we play for God? VERSE 3 I'm sick of bein' a puppet on a string! I'm sick and tired of God-damned everything! This game we play just ain't fun anymore. These rigid rules have just become such a bore. VERSE 4 Just wanna tell it all to go to hell! Just wanna shuffle off this mortal shell. Sometimes I wonder if it's all worthwhile. Sometimes the taste of life is bitter as bile. CHORUS 3 Where's the reason for it? Well, there's no reason for it. Can't you see it's just a game we play for God? Where's the reason for it? Well, there's no reason for it. Can't you see it's just a game we play for God? VERSE 4 When lady luck smiles put on your poker face, or the cosmic joker may put you back in your place. Be careful not let him know you're havin' fun. Or you'll end up the unluckiest man under the sun. BRIDGE 1 Puny people down below. Oh, how you amuse me so. With your schemes and dreams you plot and plan. In the blink of an eye I flush them down the can. Ah, don't ask me why I do it. Just for the hell of it, I guess. I derive great entertainment through it. You're all just players in my game of chess. FADE OUT Where's the reason for it? Well, there's no reason for it. Can't you see it's just a game we play for God? Where's the reason for it? Well, there's no reason for it. Can't you see it's just a game we play for God? Where's the reason for it? Well, there's no reason for it. Can't you see it's just a game we play for God? [fade out on] Da..da..da..da..da..da......
