Counting Cards - TW Walsh

If you work the clutch, I can change the gear

But there ain’t much more I can do from here

You gotta stock the pond so the drakes can thrive

You gotta kill some hawks to keep the snakes alive

I was never lucky but I

Read a couple books on counting cards

I tried some iffy stuff to keep my ego down

I read a thousand books, I let my reason drown

I memorized some spells I don’t dare to speak

You gotta break some wands to keep the wizards weak

I was never lucky but I

Read a couple books on counting cards

Thee I invoke, the Bornless one

Thee, that didst create the Earth and the Heavens

Thee, that didst create the Night and the Day

Thee, that didst create the Darkness and the Light
