about

A love song rife with laboured and overwrought cribbage puns.

lyrics

Don’t lie to me; I know you saw right through my cards
You had me pegged before the game had even started
Then how did I win?

If I was counting wrong, I’ll let the judges call it
How else could I be sure that my victory won’t have an asterisk
Beside it in the record books

And when the game was done
We both forgot who even won
The only we wanted was the post-game interview

We don’t need to celebrate, we could play again
You may be cutthroat but I’ll skunk you just the same
I think that it’s your turn

You believe in chance
But this is a game of skill, not endurance
And despite what you might say
A double run of three is still just eight

It’s lonely when I win
All I really want is a pair in my crib
Twenty-nine reasons why you should join my team

Let’s make it a best of 3 or
5, 7, 9, or eleven
Or let’s just do the whole thing
Over and over again
Over and over again
