lyrics

At the instant of my death
I won’t fall on any sword
or attempt to hold my breath til the cutting of the chord
I will hide my disgrace in the pastures of your face
I could never be afraid in the little private whirl we’ll make

Kiss-a me baby
Love-a me girl
Quit sayin maybe baby - It’s a Gambler’s Whirl

Now the gambler plays at cards
And he fights a mighty fight
He may lose and fall apart
It’s a most unholy sight
But in time he may win
Count his blessings and give in
A new card for him to play - I wonder: will he whirl it all away?

Kiss-a me baby
Love-a me girl
Quit sayin maybe baby - It’s a Gambler’s Whirl

And life is the chance you take, don’t let it get the better
No matter which card you play - you’re in for heavy weather
SO BET ONE ON ME

Everything that Bryan Scary touches is musical gold... at first when he branched out from the Shredding Tears to do Evil Arrows I was heartbroken... but these songs are full of the solid power-pop brilliance that his earlier work exhibited, if a bit more guitar-driven. Wonderful stuff! Matthew Laurence
