The Gambler's Art

Contents
Hello, my friend, come take a seat,

grab something sweet, and join us for some fun.

The tickle felt in this one's ear

as you drew near says you've got a tidy sum.

The clink of coins from your jaunty loins

Sing of riches to be won.

Let down your mane, join in our game.

We've only just begun!

Chorus:

Place your wager, raise the stakes

Build a tower from your drakes.

Draw your fortune, toss your wealth

Risk it all, you'll have your health.

And if you wind up on the street

At least you lived like true Khajiit.

I see, my friend, that you have pluck

but you're short on luck—that hand was hard to beat.

And if you find you're feeling cross

about this tragic loss, there's a cause for your defeat.

You took your chance on a furtive glance

At cards that couldn't compete.

But this cat's eyes, they tell no lies

Next time be more discreet.

Chorus:

Take a gamble, oops you're done.

Now you're broke, tuck tail and run!

Don't make a scene or swear and roar.

Tossed out, to hoots and howls galore

Next time your money's on deceit

Have the good sense to try and cheat.
