I used to love to rolling die,
Gambling was my passion.
I had a gift of luck
And to win was my vocation
I used to boost I’d even dare
To play the devil himself
A good old game of die
If he just gave me chance

I know now I spoke too soon ‘cos
One night to my disbelief
In a blast of sulfur smoke
Beelzebub himself appeared
He looked like a real gent in
His smoking suit and a bow tie
He said “Here your chance to
Show me how well you toss the die!”

Roll the dice once, roll it twice,
Roll the dice until sunrise
I didn’t know the dice were loaded
And I will pay full price.
Roll the dice once, roll it twice,
Roll the dice until sunrise
The gates of Hell have opened
And I must cross that line.

“I know you love the rolling die”
He said it with a grin.
“And ‘cos I’m fond of gambling too
I’ll make an offer just for you.
A good old liar’s game of dice
This world I’ve got in mind.
And if you win I’ll make you rich,
If you lose – your soul is mine!”

And how could I say no
To that a tingling sensation
To beat Beelzebub –
The ultimate elation.
And so I played with him all night,
I tossed a dice until sunrise…
But how the game was stun –
I lost my soul and paid full price!

Roll the dice once, roll it twice,
Roll the dice until sunrise
I didn’t know the dice were loaded
And I will pay full price.
Roll the dice once, roll it twice,
Roll the dice until sunrise
The gates of Hell have opened
And I must cross that line.

Well. How could I have ever known,
That the bloody game was fixed?
The die were surely loaded,
Beelzebub is a bloody cheat.
But the Hell is really not that bad
If ignore the constant heat.
‘Cos I still get to roll the die
With a devil from time to time.
