THE STRANGLERS
"Ice Queen"
(Jet Black / Hugh Cornwell / Dave Greenfield / Jean Jacques)

I was never sure of the accurate score
When I sat in for a hand with the Ice Queen
It was just a game with a noble name
When I sat in for a hand with the Ice Queen
I didn't have time, the aces weren't mine
I knew the stakes were high
She started melting, when I was dealt in
I thought I'd just go along for the ride

I was never sure of the accurate score
When I sat in for a hand with the Ice Queen
Cards were laid and the hand was played
When I sat in for a hand with the Ice Queen
I didn't play fair, I was beyond care
The stakes were getting high
She started melting, when I was dealt in
I thought I'd just go along for the ride
I thought I'd just go along for the ride

I knew the Ice Queen
I knew the Ice Queen

I was never sure of the accurate score
When I sat in for a hand with the Ice Queen
One day I'd win and the next I'd lose
When I sat in for the blues with the Ice Queen
I didn't play fair, I was beyond care
The stakes were getting high
She started melting, when I was dealt in
I thought I'd just go along for the ride

I knew the Ice Queen
I knew the Ice Queen

I knew the Ice Queen
I knew the Ice Queen
