Striptease With A Difference Lyrics

This re-shuffled pack brings back the sickness of luck,
Because the ace in my hand is such a shock
Exchanging queen for your two while you're out of the room,
Have a shufty over your shoulder (well it's a shady game)

And I want to lose
Oh, please let me lose
Oh, please let me lose

It's nothing to you
It's nothing to you

I'm cutting this queen
(well, this six is chewed)
You're all un-disguised
(I'm stuck on shoes)
So, have you ever met a bad winner ?
"Well, how do you do..."

What about the first verse?

"Bending the rules of a late night card game Where the loser removes an item of clothing You're dreading each deal so urgent and grave Have shufty over your shoulder (Well, it's a shady game)"

There's also more to the "bad winner" bridge bit:

"Jack! Ace! Queen! King! no! no-no! no! no-no! no-no! no.......no.....no..... "

Then he goes "They won't let me lose" and then just says "I'm bending the rules of a late night card game" again.

I think there is two versions of the leak, one with just part of the song.

Is it just a leak? What release was the full song on? It's brilliant.
