This city is so cold and abandoned
I crashed my car and now I am stranded
Whats this misfortune that I’ve been handed
There’s a burning plane that fell crash landed
These flickering lights are talking to me
A stranger in an alley has eyes on me
Quiet whispers of people I can’t see
Followed street lights to the edge of the city
It seemed to appear out of the cold thin air
A neon sign over a little white building
The slender tender told me to surrender
To get inside rid your pride never feel justified
In the blink of an eye I just sold my life
They said welcome to the velvet casino
You may have anything you want inside
And please pay some mind to all these people
They work so hard it’s a lost work of art
The blank stares can remove their hearts
The point is to just win big and nothings rigged
It’s mandatory to have the time of your life
Play your cards and roll your dice
Then have some vodka on ice
A little more then a little effort will suffice
You can never leave and try to look nice
It’s mandatory to have the time of your life
