Dice Behind Your Shades

Dice behind your shades

Roll the dice behind your shades

Everybody's trying to make you feel stupid

And you know they're lyin'

'Cause their lips are moving

Bet this one is twice your age

Come on, roll the dice behind your shades

Roll the dice behind your shades

Safer way to be strange

Roll the dice behind your shades

The avant-garde unlock the door

You're takin' notes and nothing more

A guy snaps your picture on roller blades

Come on roll the dice behind your shades

Roll the dice behind your shades

Safest way to be strange

Roll the dice behind your shades

Take it to a higher place

Where this world ain't in your face

You and me, Carson McCullers

Take it to a higher plane

Take me where the action ain't

Open windows, open shutters

Bet this one is twice your age, oh

The avant-gardes unlock your cage

And you're sick to death of the latest rage

Afraid of love it always fades

Come on, roll the dice behind your shades
