Casino of LIFE....

I am back with my third song. And yes, away from my favorite topic LOVE, am I right ?!!

We all entered without a dime

No divine or crime

Without any sense or choice

We were pushed into the Casino of Life;

The Neon said, “Welcome to Casino of LIFE”.

There were patrons waiting with wry smiles

Most were welcomed, it was just fine

But some were left alone all the while

We accepted the rules to stay sober and live

My Time had begun in the crazy device.

I am in the Casino of LIFE

I have to play because I have no choice

It makes no sense, to past or present, I am tense

As stakes are too high, In the Casino of LIFE

The roulette table, the black jack side

The wheel of fortune, the jackpot device

I am spoilt for choice; an intervention divine

Needed to stymie the wine

I am in the Casino of LIFE

I have to play because I have no choice

It makes no sense, to past or present, I am tense

As stakes are too high, In the Casino of LIFE

Win some, loose some but I don’t cry

Don’t even try to understand why,

Chip flush counter never runs dry

I will play on till my subpoena arrives,

Only thing one yearns, is a partner in crime

I am in the Casino of LIFE

I have to play because I have no choice

It makes no sense, to past or present, I am tense

As stakes are too high, In the Casino of LIFE
