ONLY A GAME ?
You’ve had a good session
You order a beer
The trophy is yours for the taking
You stifle a cheer
Then you reach the last table
Three bottoms! Oh dear!
But remember it’s only a game
You have your successes
Some skill and some bluff
You keep having setbacks
The game gets so tough
You’re a glutton for punishment
Can’t get enough
Of this tiresome, addictive
Seductive, vindictive
Frustrating, absorbing
Absurdly rewarding,
Creator of strife –
It’s a whole way of life!
Who dares say it’s only a game?
