-----------
I meet people I've only seen in dreams
They make me happy -- then sad
Do you know what this means
I go to places that I recognize
But the time's never tight
She says that it's all lies
I have adventures that don't compute
I talk to friends and leave their homes
In such disrepute
Saying everything has a cause
Everything has a root and I'm gathering proof
And I want to know what's happening in my life
I need some explanation
Could there be a joker in this slow game
Playing for what's mine
Cheating all the time --
If you are the joker in this slow game
Well, who do you want to win?
I meet people I've only seen in dreams
They make me happy -- then sad
Do you know what this means
I go to places that I recognize
But the time's never tight
She says that it's all lies
I have adventures that don't compute
I talk to friends and leave their homes
In such disrepute
Saying everything has a cause
Everything has a root and I'm gathering proof
And I want to know what's happening in my life
I need some explanation
Could there be a joker in this slow game
Playing for what's mine
Cheating all the time --
If you are the joker in this slow game
Well, who do you want to win?
And I want to know what's happening in my life
I need some explanation
Could there be a joker in this slow game
Playing for what's mine
Cheating all the time --
And if you are the joker in this slow game
Who's controlling who --
Everything has a cause
Everything has a root
A slow game
I have adventures that don't compute
And I will kick the machine
While I'm gathering proof
Saying everything has a cause
Saying everything has a root --
