You were smiling and you were licked
You had a look about you suggesting you could not be kicked
From the inside, looking out
You had a face so small I knew there was no room for doubt.

It’s not too easy but it’s not too hard
You rummage through my temples and laugh like a junkyard dog
You know I love you, I always will
And when you’re eyes roll back it gives me such a perverse thrill.

Lay your life on the table
Lay your life on the table
Lay your life on the table
Lay your life on the table.

You know you hold the razor and you grasp my arm
You had a look about you that said you’d never do me harm
But I’m just kidding and well now don’t you know
By the way that I click my heels and blow out all the candles.

So now it’s twenty questions in a row
After nineteen, sixty-three you’ve been just like Jean Morreau
From the inside, I look again
You needn’t look further than me to know you have really found a friend.

Lay your life on the table
Lay your life on the table
Lay your life on the table
Lay Your Life On The Table.
