Hi,
    i wrote these lyrics a while ago and posted them in the lyrics section,
anyway they've popped back in my head and i was wondering if anyone
fancies having a go at turning them into a proper song,cheers,Tom.

                            MAKE THE JOKER YOUR CARD

Sometimes life it's hard
show your hand make the joker your card
sometimes when you're down on your knees
you can't see the woods cos there's too many trees
sometimes life it's hard
show your hand make the joker your card
you'd better all smile while you're poking the witch
cos sometimes life it's a son of a bitch

a school called life you might just learn
at every other corner there's another turn
that cat called Billy he was a bard
don't make it hard make the joker your card

deal the aces show your hand
we're all just faces understand
the king of the swingers could be the queen
but that's just life man you know what i mean

a school called life you might just learn
at every other corner there's another turn
that cat called Billy he was a bard
don't make it hard make the joker your card

sometimes life it's hard
show your hand make the joker your card
sometimes when you're down on your knees
you can't see the woods cos there's too many trees
sometimes life it's hard
show your hand make the joker your card
you'd better all smile while you're poking the witch
cos sometimes life it's a son of a bitch
yeah just smile while you're poking the witch
cos sometimes life it's a son of a bitch.
