sally looks into the mirror
but she doesn't see her face
just a wrinkle she despises
needs to be erased
she knows a doctor 'round the corner
she knows he'll do his trick again
she can't resist his magic fingers
no, and he won't spoil her game

billy joe, he has a problem
he wants to find his way back home
but the streets all look the same here
no matter where he roams
he's been walking for so long now
that he's senial, blind and lame
could have always hailed a taxi
but he did not want to spoil his game

eve and adam ate the apple
and the rest was then arranged
there's a price for every pleasure
a loss in every gain
but there's no good in throwing stones now
'cause you and I we'd choose the same
who'd want to go and start from scratch anyway?
who'd want to go and spoil the game?

jesus was a story-spinner
at least that's what the stories say
seems he'd only gotten started
when they took his tongue away
now I just can't get away from
people spinning in his name
i wish he'd come back, shut them all up, keep them all from
spoiling the game
'cause they're trying to spoil my game
