Music by elton john<br>Lyrics by bernie taupin<br>Released as a uk b-side in may, 1975<br><br>I hear tell some playboy has kidnapped your heart<br>With his plane and his plans for games after dark<br>Just a pain in his pocket, and the price of a room<br>Where the second hand sheets smell of stale perfume<br><br>If there's sharks in the water, don't swim where it's deep<br>For the taste of success can be bitter and sweet<br>It could be alright that I act like a child<br>But you'll be the loser when the jokers run wild<br><br>You're just playing the game, but the stakes are too high<br>What will you do when the chips start to fly<br>When the deck's stacked against you, and the living gets hard<br>Oh it's four walls of madness in this house of cards<br><br>Common you call me, but I know there's time<br>In a handful of diamonds, a heart's hard to find<br>And your house of cards starts weighing you down<br>Your nights become restless when the clubs start to pound
