(Welcome to) Fabulous Las Vegas
Ten dollars for a cup of coffee / No wonder I hate this town
Showgirl shows me what I’m missing / Queen of hearts with a dirty crown
My waitress says I’m looking lonely / I know she’s speaking in code
I’m down to my last twenty / Just enough to get me down the road
They call this the city of lights / I can feel mine growing dim
Everybody wants to hit the big one / But those odds are mighty slim
I don’t consider myself a gambler / I just wanted a little taste
In time I’ll replace the money / But it’s my soul got laid to waste
Chorus
Welcome to fabulous Las Vegas / We’ll make your dreams come true
Anything you want, any time of day / It’s all waiting here for you
Everything you’ve heard is true
I came here with money & a system / No one’s ever thought of that before
I was winning for a while / But of course I wanted more
Doesn’t matter if you’re a genius / Maybe an idiot knows when to quit
Sooner or later the house will beat you / There’s no empathy in the pit
Out here, time doesn’t seem to matter / I sold my watch to keep on playing
Is this a church or a casino / I’ve never seen so many people praying
That jackpot’s just around the corner / I kept hearing myself say
But no one ever leaves here a winner / We just live to lose another day
Chorus
Welcome to fabulous Las Vegas / We’ll make your dreams come true
Anything you want, any time of day / It’s all waiting here for you
Everything you’ve heard is true
Welcome to fabulous Las Vegas / Everything you’ve heard is true
Everything you’ve heard is true
