The Shell Game

from Outside Voice (Album) by chris hardy world

/

about

Isn't life itself just one big shell game?

lyrics

could be in the middle
or the left or the right
but nobody knows
nobody knows

under a cover
it's hidden from view
and that is the game
that is the game

and the barker laughs
as the mark makes the same mistake
that every other mark makes
the shell game favors the snake

what if one's whole life
was hanging by a thread
then what would you choose
what would you choose

no one ever wins
and yet they all still play
a lesson unlearned
lesson unlearned

watch the money get laid down
watch the hands go so fast
watch the unbelievable skill
watch the chump come in last
repeated again
repeated again
repeated again
repeated again and some things never change

about

chris hardy world Edgefield, South Carolina

I write songs myself. I record them all myself. I play all the instruments (including real actual drums) myself. I sound like a band yet I am just one little guy. I do everything myself - the only job you have is to listen and enjoy! Isn't that easy?
