I Dealt an Ace

Smoke filled the bar and I saw monsters
Monsters were attacking one another
Monsters rubbing one another
I was witnessing love making and cards being dealt

I dealt an Ace
I dealt an Ace

There were sounds of pool cues connecting with coloured balls
Clang, bang
Everything sang
The smoke was level with the playing field
Women and men wearing hats and shoes

Four, six, eight string instruments off in the distance
I dealt an Ace

I probably rubbed one or two of these people the wrong way
Yet I would have been against all of them
If we had a war
There must be a war going on somewhere in the world

Could I start one here?
Against everyone in this smoke filled room?

A shutter can be heard right here and right now
So I will throw the Man two cents right before I deliver
Someone behind me turns over a chair
A volcano has erupted in the promised land

I dealt an Ace
I dealt an Ace
