Don't Bluff Mick Stevens (original lyrics)

Pabloh

After some recent drunken sessions with a number of failed attempts to convert the full lyrics of Don't Stop Believin to an homage to MickSte I humbly present the following ... and suggest that any of you fortunate to be in his presence while said Journey song is playing use the revised lyrics below.

Just a small time game
Faces they are all the same
Kinda players you could find anywhere
Just a city boy
Born and raised in south Greystones
He took the last dart train going anywhere

A player in a smoky room
The smell of Lynx and Tadhg’s perfume
After Coppers they can share the night
It goes on and on and on and on

Strangers waiting
Up and down the Jackpot Tables
They stagger drunkenly in the night
Here comes the Stevens
Playing cards without emotion
Grinding somewhere in the night

Working hard to get my fill
Everybody wants a thrill
Paying anything to roll the dice
Just one more time

Some will win, some will lose
Kev Corr sells new shoes
Oh, the movie never ends
It goes on and on and on and on
Strangers waiting
Up and down the Jackpot Tables
They stagger drunkenly in the night
Here comes the Stevens
Playing cards without emotion
Grinding somewhere in the night


Don't bluff Mick Stevens
Don’t you ever bluff Mick Stevens
He’ll call you down with Jack high!
Woah
Don’t Bluff Mick Stevens
Fold ‘em
You people
Ohhhhhh
Don’t you ever bluff Mick Stevens
He’ll leave you cryin in the night
SWARRRR

Paul that is quality! I am proud to have my name in such a legendary song! God Micks head is going to swell after this. I might have to put some photos up from da other night to bring him back down to earth.

SWAR

Paul u must have a lot of time on your hands....absolute classic all the same. I hope 'The Steee' realises that you have just added some serious fuel to the fire!!

I'm off to memorise the lyrics!

Pabloh

Any photos that don't involve me are more than welcome.

Now to work on my next song

SWARRR huh. What is he good for?? Absolutely nothin'

Paul you are cracking me up here, please finish that song!

Pabloh

Ok Danny Since you asked for it...pretty repetitive though as is the original.

SWAR, huh, yeah
What is he good for?
Absolutely (nothing), ah, ha, ha, ha

SWAR, huh, yeah
What is he good for?
Absolutely (nothing)
Say it again, y'all

SWAR, huh, look out!
What is he good for?
Absolutely (nothing)
Listen to me

SWAR I extol
'cause he means destruction of innocent rolls
SWAR means the hundred heart attacks
When the rocks call and lose their stacks!

I said, SWAR, huh, good God y'all
What is he good for
Absolutely (nothing)
geh, say it again

SWAR (Huh)
Woh, woh, woh, woh
What is he good for?
Absolutely (nothing)
Listen to me

SWAR, he ain't nothin' but a stacktaker
SWAR, he’s some kind of game breaker

Ah, SWAR is an enemy of all you nits
Cause when he plays he’s usually off his *&*%!
SWAR has caused unrest within every cardroom
Amazement then derangement
Who wants to Call? Ah....

SWAR, good God, y'all
What is he good for ?
Absolutely (nothing)
Say it, say it, say it

SWAR, ah ha yeah, huh,
What is he good for?
Absolutely (nothing)
Listen to me

SWAR, he ain't nothin' but a stacktaker
SWAR, he’s some kind of game breaker

Ah, SWAR has shattered many a young man's dreams
Made him disabled, bitter and mean

Life is much too short and precious
To spend playing SWAR each day
SWAR can't give life
He can only take it away

Ahh ,SWAR, (Huh)
Good God y'all
What is he good for?
Absolutely nothing
Say it again

(SWAR, huh)
Woh, woh woh, Lord,
What is he good for?
Absolutely nothing
Listen to me

SWAR, some say is is a stacktaker
SWAR, but maybe he’s a game maker?

Check, minraise and call, tell me
Is there no place for them today?
SWAR only goes all-in!
But Lord knows there's gotta be a better way
Ahh ,SWAR, (Huh)
Good God y'all
What is he good for?.......

A+ Paul legendary :cool:

SWAR

Jaysus Paul, you are on a roll tonight...I don't know whether to be insulted or grateful that you took the time to assemble these fine lyrics!!

Who's next on your list??

Pabloh

That's the creative juices dried up for the evening I fear. I could always do something for TD around Danny Boy or Hatedajacks could have any Corrs song :P

or what about Tadhg me kangaroo's down mate?

hatedajacks

Leave me out of this mate! Quit while u are ahead

Jayminator

You know one of my musical heros is Paul Weller.

Any man that can get the following lyric ''two lovers missing the tranquility of solitude'' into a song is an absolute genius... The song is ''Thats Entertainmet'' BTW or the lyrics ''Older married housewives are clutching milk bottles to their hearts''.....Song ''A town called Malice'' is pure genius.

I stumble upon this thread as I while away this now darkened Moody Monday evening and find that I may have actually stumbled upon another musical lyrical genius in the shape of Paul.

Paul I am not suggesting for one minute that you are the finished article but you definitely possess a talent.

My visions now of Mickste crooning to this song as he casually waves wads of 50's in cab drivers faces whilst dancing with his trousers just above his knees sends me off to reminice (cant fkn spell it ok) of more gentler times when all we had to deal with was the Micksteeee stare down.

Now through the medium of music and the genius of our fellow boardster Pabloh has brought together in song not 1 but 2 legends of the Dublin poker scene..........

Maybe, just maybe when Paul Weller referred to his ''2 lovers missing the tranquility of solitutde'' he thought of these 2 people you speak of who have now been united in song....

Mick & Swar up a tree K-I-S-S-I-N-G...

LOLers for the rollz Paul. WP GG n all. Love it.

Delighted to have cheered up Jays evening. I hope we are all inspired to add a little verse and tune to our game. Now to wander off to the Jackpot in search of inspiration and wonder how to fit an alternate lyric to "watch me wallabies feed mate" into a song about Tadhg.

Might I suggest:

"If I fold then I'll flop the nuts mate..."

Touch of lyrical genius I feel.

Don't let this thread die......some more efforts from paul and others please....Inspired by Pabloh brill effort to the tune of dear stan

DEAR SE

Decks gone cold, i wonder why, i came down here at all,
there nonone in the poker room, it's like an empty hall,
and even if the food werent shte , the attendences will fall
it reminds me, that its got so bad its got so bad thats all

Dear SE, it's me , I was playing in your last big M E, the structure was
quality but I didn't win it.
So I played a cash game instead , there were plenty of heads,
but now when I go in there, there is no one in it
i asked your doorman to let my bro in , but he couldnt go in
he wouldn't let him show him , he wasnt drunk,
so we left and went drinking , that got me thinking, dont you want my money?

me and you are the same we both lke a game but you never respond to my letters
so tonight im going to drive my car off to lukes, you deserve it, we should be together
but the suits on the 1st floor dont want me around anymore, it will never get better...
goodbye -

Nice one Willie. I'll hum this to myself as I play the Sat tonight
I'll work on another one tomorrow and throw it up.

Show me the way to go home,

I'm tired and I wanna go te bed,

I got'em in against the chief about an hour ago,

He sucked out, and now I'm dead!

No matter where I raised,

In early, middle or late,

I would always find him tagging along,

Show me the way to go home.



Show me the way to go home,

I'm tired and I wanna go te bed,

I had Kings, I had Aces, I'd a set of nines,

He sucked out on every one!

He called my big all in,

With a Jack and a four of clubs,

A four on the flop another one on the turn,

Show me the way to go home


Show me the way to go home,

I'm tired and I wanna go te bed,

I've been chiefed, I've been chiefed, I've been Chee hee hee heefed

Show me the way to go home.

Pabloh

Lol. Nice one Lazare. I was planning my own homage to El Chiefie but it'll wait for a bit.

I actually penned that about 2 years ago, but it got no love then. This seemed the perfect thread for it. Do you like the 'Jaws' linkage? Edit, this is the first time I've posted from my mobile phone, pretty cool.

No Olly, it's just a standard mobile browser, it's pretty basic really. I've seen your one in the SE, it was sh1t hot, mine's nowhere near as good.

I need to get a new phone soon, you obv recommend opera mini then.

I have opera mini installed on my sony ericcson as well and it makes it much faster due to the compression used. It's free so check it out. Basic mobiles can do so much now its unreal. I also have a betfair applet for getting my gamble on while playing cards!
