i wake up on the chequerboard
being played upon by the overlord,
a pawn in the scheme of things,
let's see what tomorrow brings.

The same as it was yesterday
I am part of the game that they play
in which I do not have a say,
let's see what tomorrow brings.

One step ahead and three to the right
crossing swords with a knight,and
the overlords think that's alright,but
let's see what tomorrow brings.

Today,
with the pieces all done and
wondering who it was won,
thinking it wasn't much fun,
I'll see what tomorrow brings.
