"Las Vegas" lyrics

"Las Vegas"

You're back in town for the heat
It feels just like you're seventeen
Maybe you could get a lift
From the uptown boys
You used to run with
You wore makeup for three days straight
Half a Xanax for the holidays
By the look on your face
You're rolling eights the hard way

We came here to win
We didn't come for the entertainment
Whoa
I believe
I believe in Las Vegas
The city of plastic
So real it's dangerous

Back out here on the street
The hotlines are all out of reach
I beg your pardon I was leaving
On account of my Lady Luck's gone away
Are you up?
Why you grinning?
Now I'm listening to the stories that you're spinning
About how you got burned when the tables turned cold

We came here to win
We didn't come for the entertainment
I believe
I believe in Las Vegas
The city of plastic
So real it's dangerous

Summer ends and you're sticking around
And just like Elvis you came crashing down
By the look on your face
You was a little bit loaded

We came here to win
We didn't come for the entertainment
Whoa
I believe
I believe in Las Vegas
The city of plastic
So real it's dangerous
I believe
I believe in Las Vegas
The city of plastic
So real it's dangerous

So real it could save us
