Duran Duran - I Take The Dice Lyrics






Midnight I think I'm gonna make it
Feel the magical lash of the roll
and the crash in their lives
Headline in tomorrow's papers
Kill that light it's so bright
And you're shining it right in my eyes

[CHORUS]
Show me your secret and tell me your name
Catch me with your fizzy smile
Try to remember again and again
What it is that I recognise
Don't ask me now
When I need you I don't know how
To believe in your advice
Just this once I take the dice

Midnight so what's the point of faking
For a kiss or a whisper
you pull out a desperate prize
Hold tight onto Daddy's bracelet
Make them pay for their chances
With money they don't think that's nice

[CHORUS]

    "I TAKE THE DICE" 🖤❤🖤

    Midnight I think I'm gonna make it
    Feel the magical lash of the roll
    and the crash in their lives
    Headline in tomorrow's papers
    Kill that light it's so bright
    And you're shining it right in my eyes

    Show me your secret and tell me your name
    Catch me with your fizzy smile
    Try to remember again and again
    What it is that I recognise
    Don't ask me now
    When I need you I don't know how
    To believe in your advice
    Just this once I take the dice

    Midnight so what's the point of faking
    For a kiss or a whisper
    you pull out a desperate prize
    Hold tight onto Daddy's bracelet
    Make them pay for their chances
    With money they don't think that's nice

    Show me your secret and tell me your name
    Catch me with your fizzy smile
    Try to remember again and again
    What it is that I recognise
    Don't ask me now
    When I need you I don't know how
    To believe in your advice
    Just this once I take the dice

  4. M.... F....

    Música linda

  5. T.... O....

    懐かしい!!
    当時を思い出す〜

  6. C.... W....

    As a musician do you realize how hard it is to reproduce this live? Thats why you never hear anyone do DD in clubs and bars..besides their more acoustic stuff.

  7. L.... N....

    There's no Duran Duran equivalent in this generation, nor any other great 80s bands for that matter despite all the boisterous noise from 2000ers!!!

  8. C.... A....

    io no sono valchiria il mio zoccolo spara sono lucifero

  9. C.... A....

    è anti sognare

  10. C.... A....

    mi ha risposto un regista sono da usare contro le adolescenti

  11. C.... A....

    sono cieca non sono immagini di diretta

  12. K.... G....

    Always found this song one of the best in the album.

  13. D.... P....

    Unbelievable melodies mixed in with Simon's wonderful harmonies. Great songwriters for sure. The first album I ever owned!!!! My Dad said "these wont last" LMFAO!

  14. V.... A....

    love. take. the dice

  15. G.... A....

    2:15 eu vivo escutando essa parte com o volume no máximo. é incrivel.

  16. K.... T....

    Almost forgot about this song. Needed a video.

  17. k.... F....

    *LOVE this song -1 of the best in SATRG *

  18. A.... ....

    I've always liked how they sound kind of like the Andrews Sisters on this album.

    A.... ....

    LOL... to much reverb on Simon's voice or maybe overproduced?

    A.... ....

    Nope, just right.

    A.... ....

    +archepytus The Andrew sisters you say? It's called the Tin Pan Alley sound. Many artists in the 60s rock & pop scene were inspired by it notably the Beatles. To some extent Duran Duran too!

  19. T.... S....

    Easy to go into raptures of this joyful old song Duran had some kind of magic lotion for their songs !!

  20. G.... B....

    Oh dear - not only do you typo with '...tell me YOU name...' but it's been #CopyAndPasted with that mistake several times...

  21. D.... ....

    Duran always have such amazing melodies....that's why they were HUGE in the 80s 👍

    D.... ....

    The first time I tried ecstasy, this song was playing really loudly in my apartment and it kicked in really strong when that little bridge after the chorus "dont ask me hooowww to believe in your advice" or whatever
    the notes and different squiqqly little sounds became a visual pattern and I just got up and needed to move

    that's the magic of it!
