Darius once was the starting linebacker
He got mixed up with the wrong crowd
Took something that didn't belong to him
And made a run for Fort MacCleod
Three days later they found him out on Highway 2
He was missing his finger, he was missing his shoes
It's just a fool's game, nothing changes, it's just a fool's game
Sketchy Shane always bragged about his luck
Claimed it was the rabbit's foot around his neck
Hustling cards is a fool's game
Cheating any sucker just the same
Lying under the table with five aces in his coat
His eyes bulged and the rabbit's foot down his throat
It's just a fool's game, nothing changes, it's just a fool's game
New Year's Eve Kevin's out with his friends
Pounding them back as the countdown begins
Fireworks blasting, ringing in the new year
Guns a-blazing in joyful cheer
Shots fired up, must come down
And Kevin's found, slumped on the ground
It's just a fool's game, nothing changes, it's just a fool's game
Yeah, nothing changes, it's just a fool's game
