Player (Dostoevsky)!
Player (Dostoevsky)!
There's green cloth.
And it is lined.
Diamond Manistee.
You blaze, you're burning up.
What are you doing with the chips.
You're bluffing?
Are you silent?
Hands tremble nervously.
After all, surely win.
And then begged his wife.
You're my beauty.
It's a passion she ruined.
But, "The Gambler" has given us.
Dostoevsky you flower.
Drama you connoisseur.
Psychology king.
You have kept your love.
