Nobody Lives in Vegas

everybody is just passing through

everybody is on their way

meant for something different

somewhere else

somewhere other than this

everybody is just being shrewd

everybody is someone else today

everyone thinks that they are different

everyone thinks that nobodies the sane

everybody has something to play

everything is a part of this game

everybody just dropped the house

in the bellagio on the craps

get woken up coked out

in the toilets

getting slapped up like a hooker

but in this parade another looker

another day old vintage snap

another shocker with a slap

but yeah you love it

because deep down you really are

just a slut

i have no illusions or answers

i have no solutions or plans

i'm unable to plot this on a chart

i knew it

i fuckin knew it

and i had

i had to let you know

i had to say i'm glad to say

i fuckin toadaso

because nobody lives in vegas

there are no houses

for you to rent

nothing for you to buy

aint got nothing on the strip

because nobody lives in vegas

except some people in a Metric song

and one of them got fuckin killed

nobody lives in vegas

it's just a patch of random light

they change them when they wanna

but mostly it's at night (mostly)
