"It's Midnight And I'm Not Famous Yet" lyrics
"It's Midnight And I'm Not Famous Yet"
Catch the elevator from the penthouse suite
And take it down to the casino
The God-almighty sound of money movin' 'round
Can be heard all the way to Reno
Well, it's midnight and I'm not famous yet
Tryin' to win it all with one more bet
Nothin' can stop my thirty-two hop or my ten dollar yo yo yo
It's midnight, I'm just gettin' ready to roll
Now Lester Polyester signs another marker
Like the high rollers do
Seven come eleven
His brand new baby needs Gucci shoes
Well, it's midnight and she's not famous yet
Tryin' to break the bank with one more bet
Nothin' can stop my thirty-two hop or my ten dollar yo yo yo
It's midnight, Lester's gettin' ready to roll
They're pagin' someone we know
Lester hits a keno, he's not leavin' yet
Vacuum cleaners, hummin' lounge act still is strummin'
It's their twenty-fourth set
Well, it's midnight and they're not famous yet
Tryin' to win it all with one more bet
Nothin' can stop my thirty-two hop or my ten dollar yo yo yo
It's midnight, got nowhere to go
