So I turned to consider Wisdom and madness and folly I saw that Wisdom
excels folly as light excels darkness . The wise man has eyes in his head
but the fool walks in darkness , and yet I perceived that one fate comes to
all of them . I said to myself , why then have I been so very wise ?
/ so I hated all my toil in which I had toiled under the sun. seeing that I must
leave it to the man who will come after me and who knows whether he will be
a wise man or a fool this is vanity and a great evil
Ecclesiastes .

WHAT’S YOUR NAME ?
WHAT’S YOUR NUMBER ?
WHAT’S IT MATTER ANYWAY ?
IN THE LONG RUN
IN THE SHORT RUN
YOU’RE ONLY HERE FOR ONE MORE DAY

PLAY YOUR CARDS
LAY THEM DOWN
IN THE COUNTRY OR THE TOWN
THROUGH A DESERT
ON THE OCEAN
WHAT’S THE DIFFERENCE WHERE YOU’RE BOUND ?

WHAT’S YOUR PLACE ?
WHERE’S YOUR HOME NOW ?
DUST TO DUST THE ASHES LIE
ACROSS THE RIVER
THROUGH THE FIELD
BEYOND THE PLACE WHERE EAGLES FLY ?

TAKE YOUR CHANCES
CHOOSE YOUR TIME
WATCH EACH WINDOW FOR A SIGN
SEE THE REASON
SING THE SONG
TOMORROWS HERE AND NOW IT’S GONE

WHAT’S YOUR PROMISE ?
WHAT’S YOUR PRIZE ?
WHAT’S YOUR ANSWER TRUTH OR LIES ?
WHAT’S YOUR COLOUR ?
WHAT’S YOUR CREED ?
WHAT’S YOUR REASON TO BELIEVE ?

PLAY YOUR CARDS
LAY THEM DOWN
IN THE COUNTRY OR THE TOWN
THROUGH A DESERT
ON THE OCEAN
WHAT’S IT MATTER WHERE YOU’RE BOUND ?
