Welcome to Downtown Vegas where you can set yourself free
Golden Nugget, Glitter Gulch, margaritas at the D
Count the chips, count the bruises, comfort yourself with a Martini
This place is for the people who find the strip a bit too sceney
Rim licked clean, olives suffocate slow like routine
My smile's a roulette, see it stretching thin
Dealer keeps dealing in bullets and chagrin
Count the chips, count the bruises, soothe your wounds with gin and molly
Rim licked clean, olives suffocate slow like human folly
My smile's a roulette with a cigarette
See it stretching thin
Dealer keeps dealing in bullets and chagrin
Bated breath in the lucid dream, can you feel the suspense?
Every punchline's a knockout when you've got no pretense
Divorced men of a certain age, dissolving in their seats
Frank Sinatra came and got you, dragged you back down Fremont Street, yeah!
I got skeletons, I've made some backroom deals
Gold satin, two Manhattans. do you like how it feels?
Lose the plot, let it tie you up
Scramble the scripts
You're a master of self-sabotage, I'd say give yourself a tip
I ain't suicidal, but I do know where the bridge is
For now I'll take your money and I'll charge you for the privilege
Taught my rabbit some bad habits. God, I hope it's not clean
The only way you'll lose is if you wonder what it means
Hope is on a tightrope, every grasp is a release
It's high in suicide, but what a ride, I want a piece
But no police!
There goes Mr. Gleason, scored a threesome, now he's scared to double down
You've been losing for an hour but that's bound to turn around
He's wishing you a safe, legal, and responsible bender
You'll find an escort at a food court or on Tinder
You'll forget all of this like you forgot your credit card
Where players work, this man's a jerk. Let's watch him go down hard
It's bustling with hustling, so you got to stay on guard
Now watch me bet against the spread
on my own petard
Rim licked clean, olives suffocate slow like the American dream
My smile's a roulette wheel, only cowards don't go all in
Dealer keeps dealing in bullets
and chagrin
