Blackout
Clubbing loves and digging spades
Beating hearts with diamond blades
It's getting darker out
Thunder snow clouds looming
It's much too dark for clouds
Could be night or dooming
Blackjack tables, vingt-et-un - carte a la banque
The left bank and the right bank
Both got lost in the shuffle
Selling hate and progress
And everyone got hustled
Blackjack tables, vingt-et-un - carte a la banque
A world divided over what is real
And what simple things can do
People being led to think and feel
That real things just aren't true
We can't even agree
Why we argue about it
Up and down and right or wrong
But darker by the minute
Blackjack tables, vingt-et-un - carte a la banque
It's getting darker out
Because the world is spinning
Dark is night and time to see
I wonder who is winning
Blackjack tables, vingt-et-un - carte a la banque
Blackjack or a blackout
The house bet always pays
Clubbing loves and digging spades
Beating hearts with diamond blades
Twenty-twenty-one
