When the burning star is gone
when the Devil grows his horn
at the time when souls are fed
in the hour of the flaming red
The siamese twins are black
and now they live in captains quarters
the four eyed capitan
is holding court with his sisters and daughters
put your money on black
and watch the losses you have won
by the sisters bed
you lose your mind
or you lose your head
playing on flaming red
Blame the fire on yourself
hear this promise, a tender pray
from the living to the dead
from the shining white to flaming red
You don’t tell, you don’t watch, you don’t stray
the dogman is a man of needs
the moonlight is pale
and shadows walk the citystreets
it counts when you mean it
it counts when you bleed it
it counts in large amounts
or so they say
The siamese twins are black
and now they live in captains quarters
the four eyed capitan
is holding court with his sisters and daughters
put your money on black
and watch the losses you have won
by the sisters bed
you lose your mind
or you lose your head
playing on flaming red
