THE HOUSE ALWAYS WINS (Cooper/Jones)

In life there is one certainty
We all face our mortality
For it ends like it begins 
The house always wins 

We want eternal youth for all 
Which isn’t even possible 
For beauty fades and passion dims
The house always wins 

We make mistakes that we regret
But there’s one thing we can’t forget 
Regardless, we repent our sins 
The house always wins 

Like nature has its night and day
We bloom and soon will fade away 
Alas we only get one spin 
The house always wins 

We’re clever or so we believe  
We’ll beat it with technology
But not so fast, the dealer grins 
The house always wins 

So, while the ice caps slowly melt
Play the cards that you’ve been dealt
Don’t fight it, just give in 
The house always wins 

The house always wins 

The house always wins
