On a journey to another land  The hunters sailed into the night  Telling tales of a mystery  The warm mist blackened out the light  A pirate  A madman  So evil no one had seen  And lived to tell  As the shore drew near the silence broke  A sound the hunter knew so well  So well  The chosen  Had Fallen  To water  One place to go  One mystery    He swam on to the isle  With a sense of destiny  Deja'vu filled his mind  With a kind of lunacy  A castle on a cliff  Where shadows seemed to be alive  He held on to his heart  And wondered if he would survive    He's got to play the most  Dangerous game  His time to play the most  Dangerous game    The sea raged on below  As the general made his rules  To fight was certain death  And the hunter was no fool  Into the night he ran  Trying to stay one step ahead  He fought to keep his nerve  The final say is all that's said    He's got to play the most  Dangerous game  His time to play the most  Dangerous game    Black eyes  Seek their prey  There's no escape  Can't runaway  Fight Back  Seize your chance  Meet treachery  With Vigilance    The night time brought surprise  To the general's cold black eyes  The hunted turned to fight  Killing him was only right  And as the sunlight came  The final say had well been said  Sir Rainsford's sweet revenge  Was sleeping in the general's bed    He's got to play the most  Dangerous game  His time to play the most  Dangerous game
