[English]

One two one...

...

Ups and downs are the way of the world

Even if I draw a loser, I won't be shaken

The key is a strong mind

Outsmart and survive

The destination is heaven or hell

The rules of this world

Only one winner is justice

Women have guts

Teasing that guy

I'll do whatever I can

I'm the queen of gambling madness

I see through you, you doubt me

Read me right, let's showdown

Deal with the devil, I see through you

I'll make you mine

Every single strand of your hair

A million dollars, I'd say raise

You're trembling, boy

I won't let you down

Deal with the devil, uhn, excitement

I can't resist this thrill

I won't let anyone touch this money

A million dollars, I'd say raise

Come on, brace yourself

Tremble and get excited, my heart

If you want it, you're still a baby

I won't lose to anyone

Make me feel it, love me honey

...

It's a secret just for you

Look, I'll show you

Secrets are sweet

I'll set a trap for you

Luring you into carelessness

If you stop thinking, it's the end

With a look as if you know nothing

I'll bring you down

That's just bravado, you doubt me

Read me right, let's showdown

Deal with the devil, I won't miss

Not even the smallest cheat

My eyes won't be deceived

A million dollars, I'd say raise

The opponent I beat, I'll love to the bone

I won't let my prey escape

I'll wet my lips for you, my babe

唇濡らして頂くわ My babe

...

With the jack of diamonds, my hand is complete

Just waiting with a smile killed

My poker face is perfect

I won't show even a minute's gap

...

I can feel your gaze

What you desire is until the end

Don't just watch

Won't you play with me?

Afraid of losing? You're an easy game

Read me right, let's showdown

Deal with the devil, I see through you

I'll make you mine

Every single strand of your hair

A million dollars, I'd say raise

You're trembling, boy

I'll go all the way

Deal with the devil, uhn, excitement

I can't resist this thrill

I won't let anyone touch this money

A million dollars, I'd say raise

Come on, brace yourself

Hit until you're high

If you want it, you're still a baby

I won't lose to anyone

Make me feel it, love me honey
