Beginner’s Luck Songtext
von King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard

Join me at the table
If you′d like to place a bet
All the cash that's filling your pockets
Is waiting to be spent
I know you′ve never played but
Drinks are free
It's so bizarre
Even if you lose a few chips
It's cheaper than the bar

Beginner′s luck
Is on your side
You′ve got dollar
Signs inside
Your eyes

The beginner's luck
Now don′t mess it up
If you get too stuck just bluff
The beginner's luck is tough


The king extends his hand
He looks into my palm
I don′t know if he wants to shake it
Or cut it from my arm
The dealer sits a-washing
All the burn cards from the deck
I think he might be trying to clean them
But I'd have to double check

Beginner′s luck
Is on your side
You've got dollar
Signs Inside
Your eyes

The beginner's luck
Now don′t mess it up
If you get too stuck just bluff
The beginner′s luck is tough

All your money's scared
And you′re down to betting skins
But have you heard of a trick called spooking?
It'll help you win
But tricks are just for children
And cheating is a sin
And now you′re down to the felt on the table
And security's moving in


Beginner′s luck
Of course backfired
Caught red-handed
By the eye
In the sky

The beginner's luck
Now don't mess it up
The beginner′s luck
Now don′t mess it up
The beginner's luck
Now don′t mess it up
If you get too stuck just bluff
The beginner's luck is tough (ooh la)
The beginner′s luck (ooh la)
Now don't mess it up (ooh la)
The beginner′s luck (ooh la)
Now don't mess it up (ooh la)
The beginner's luck (ooh la)
Now don′t mess it up (ooh la)
If you get too stuck just bluff
The beginner′s luck is tough (ooh)

The beginner's luck
Now don′t mess it up
The beginner's luck
Now don′t mess it up
The beginner's luck
Now don′t mess it up
If you get too stuck just bluff
The beginner's luck is tough (ooh)
