Paper Crown Casino

[Verse 1]
You sell your hours
For a plastic chair
Staring at a glowing window
Like it's gonna care
Loose change in a coffee cup
Fortunes on a cracked screen
You chase that green mirage
Across a desert of routine
[Chorus]
Money
Money
Paper crown casino
Spinning like a wheel in my brain
I keep betting on a better tomorrow
But the house keeps hiding my change
Money
Money
Paper crown casino
Every win just raises the stakes
How much gold for a night of sleeping
How much silver for a soul that aches (oh yeah)
[Verse 2]
Got a gold card
With a rusted name
You buy new shoes
For the same old game
Boss man smiles
With his sharpened teeth
Says
"One more climb"
As he moves your peak
[Chorus]
Money
Money
Paper crown casino
Spinning like a wheel in my brain
I keep betting on a better tomorrow
But the house keeps hiding my change
Money
Money
Paper crown casino
Every win just raises the stakes
How much gold for a night of sleeping
How much silver for a soul that aches
[Bridge]
[Guitars drift into phaser-soaked
Half-time groove]
If I walk out broke tonight
But my hands are finally free
Would I miss the shining numbers
Or remember I can breathe
[Chorus]
Money
Money
Paper crown casino
Spinning like a wheel in my brain
I keep betting on a better tomorrow
But the house keeps hiding my change
Money
Money
Paper crown casino
Let it burn
I’m keeping my name
If I lose this glittering prison
Maybe that’s the only win I claim
