Lyrics The Turn of A Friendly Card - The Alan Parsons Project
There
are
unsmiling
faces
and
bright
plastic
chains
And
a
wheel
in
perpetual
motion
And
they
follow
the
races
and
pay
out
the
gains
With
no
show
of
outward
emotion
And
they
think
it
will
make
their
lives
easier
For
god
knows
up
till
now
it's
been
hard
But
the
game
never
ends
when
your
whole
world
depends
On
the
turn
of
a
friendly
card
No
the
game
never
ends
when
your
whole
world
depends
On
the
turn
of
a
friendly
card
There's
a
sign
in
the
desert
that
lies
to
the
west
Where
you
can't
tell
the
night
from
the
sunrise
And
not
all's
the
king's
horse
and
all
the
king's
men
Have
prevented
the
fall
of
the
unwise
For
they
think
it
will
make
their
lives
easier
And
god
knows
it's
been
hard
But
the
game
never
ends
when
your
whole
world
depends
On
the
turn
of
a
friendly
card
No
the
game
never
ends
when
your
whole
world
depends
On
the
turn
of
a
friendly
card
But
a
pilgrim
must
follow
in
search
of
a
shrine
As
he
enters
inside
the
cathedral...
