Since making their return with their 2014 album Manslaughter, Body Count have included a cover of an iconic metal anthem on each subsequent release. For 2020’s Carnivore, the band chose to cover speed metal legends Motorhead’s song “Ace of Spades” from the band’s 1980 album of the same name, as a tr...
[Intro]
On every Body Count album
We like to pay homage and tribute to a
Group that motivated and inspired our sound
On this album, we're sending a shout out to Lemmy
Rest in peace, from Motorhead
[Verse 1]
If you like to gamble, I tell you I'm your man
You win some, you lose some, it's all the same to me

I don't share your greed, the only card I need
[Chorus]

The ace of spades
[Verse 2]

Going with the flow, it's all a game to me

Double up or quit, double stake or split
[Chorus]
The ace of spades
The ace of spades
[Bridge]
You know I'm born to lose, and gambling's for fools
But that's the way I like it baby, I don't wanna live forever
And don't forget the joker
[Verse 3]
Pushing up the ante, I know you got to see me
Read 'em and weep, the dead man's hand again
I see it in your eyes, take one look and die
The only thing you see, i know it's gonna be
[Chorus]
The ace of spades
The ace of spades

On this one we did Motörhead. People ask, ‘Where’s your Motörhead influence?’ and I’m like, ‘Listen to “Cop Ki...
