"Vegas" lyrics
"Vegas"
The road that leads you to Vegas
Remains so free
Where men have lost a perfect set
Within so much regret
The turning wheel on every table
Have they told you yet
A formula, a winning scheme
More than you can dream
In a case of crime
In a case of death
Would you have to hold
Have to hold your breath?
The charges of your sentence
An answer to your key
A switching argument
Condemning
Your damned
To plea
From the black screen of my eyelids
Closing in on you
The image showing me that
It is oh so true
The young man with a wild smile
Like Bonaparte
He's looking like a piece of
Like a piece of art
In a case of crime
In a case of death
Would you have to hold
Have to hold your breath?
The charges of your sentence
An answer to your key
A switching argument
Condemning
Your damned
To plea

Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds - "Nature Boy" I was just a boy when I sat down
To watch the news on TV
I saw some ordinary slaughter
I saw some routine atrocity
My father said, don't look away
You got to be strong, you got to be bold, now...
Lou Reed - "New Sensations" I don't like guilt be it stoned or stupid
drunk and disorderly I ain't no cupid
Two years ago today I was arrested on Christmas Eve
I don't want pain, I want to walk not be carried
I don't want to...
Patti Smith - "Dancing Barefoot" She is benediction
She is addicted to thee
She is the root connection
She is connecting with he
Here I go and I don't know why
I fell so ceaselessly
Could it be he's taking over me...
I'm dancing...
The Replacements - "Alex Chilton" If he was from Venus, would he feed us with a spoon?
If he was from Mars, wouldn't that be cool?
Standing right on campus, would he stamp us in a file?
Hangin' down in Memphis all the while....
Gang Of Four - "Damaged Goods" The change will do you good
I always knew it would
Sometimes I'm thinking that I love you
But I know it's only lust
Your kiss so sweet
Your sweat so sour
Your kiss so sweet
Your sweat so sour...
