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 Ohhhh... The avante 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
