The Lyrics
Heartbeats is the track used on the current Sony Bravia commercials (with all the different coloured balls bouncing down a hill in San Fransisco)
One night of being shrewd
We can but hope for truth
You me and Thomas said
Five hands we'll make it pay
We made an inference
Tom threw cards so bent
As we sat to play
His was a dodgy spade
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough
Hadn't won
He might have a full flush
We weren't holding much
He wiped the table clean
The dirty thief
Tom was the card tycoon
Our words were very blue
We heard Thomas say
We weren't in luck
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough
Hadn't won
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough....
And he, he dealt a hand so so evil
And he, ripped us off with such cheer
Playing of his card cheats
All the night
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough
Hadn't won
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough....
We can but hope for truth
You me and Thomas said
Five hands we'll make it pay
We made an inference
Tom threw cards so bent
As we sat to play
His was a dodgy spade
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough
Hadn't won
He might have a full flush
We weren't holding much
He wiped the table clean
The dirty thief
Tom was the card tycoon
Our words were very blue
We heard Thomas say
We weren't in luck
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough
Hadn't won
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough....
And he, he dealt a hand so so evil
And he, ripped us off with such cheer
Playing of his card cheats
All the night
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough
Hadn't won
Held hand tight as a glove
A mean one
We're feeling pretty rough....
