"Vegas Lights" lyrics

"Vegas Lights"

1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-1
Oh, oh, oh oh oh
(5-4-3-2-1)
Oh, oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh,oh oh oh
(5-4-3-2-1)
Oh, oh,oh oh oh

Oh, if you only knew
What we've been up to
I guarantee you'd keep it secret
So give it to me now
We're lost in a dream now
Do it (5-4-3-2) one more time

In the Vegas lights
Where villains spend the weekend
The deep end
We're swimming with the sharks until we drown

The Vegas lights
The lies and affectations
Sensation
We're winning 'til the curtain's coming down

Ain't it so, ain't it so perfect
Our cynical minds will make it totally worth it
So give it to me now
We're lost in a dream now
Do it (5-4-3-2) one more time

In the Vegas lights
Where villains spend the weekend
The deep end
We're swimming with the sharks until we drown

The Vegas lights
The lies and affectations
Sensation
We're winning 'til the curtain's coming down

Oh, oh, oh oh oh
(5-4-3-2-1)
Oh, oh, oh oh oh
Oh, oh, oh oh oh
(5-4-3-2-1)
Oh, oh, oh oh oh

And we're all not here for nothing
And we're bored with looking good
We gotta be starting something
Would you change it if you could?

(Would you change it if you could?)

And we're all not here for nothing
And we're bored with looking good
We gotta be starting something
Would you change it if you could?

In the Vegas lights
Where villains spend the weekend
The deep end
We're swimming with the sharks until we drown

The Vegas lights
The lies and affectations
Sensation
We're winning 'til the curtain's coming down

In the Vegas lights
Where villains spend the weekend
The deep end
We're swimming with the sharks until we drown

The Vegas lights
The lies and affectations
Sensation
We're winning 'til the curtain's coming down

Oh, oh, oh oh oh
(5-4-3-2-1)
Oh, oh, oh oh oh
We're swimming with the sharks until we drown
Oh, oh,oh oh oh
(5-4-3-2-1)
Oh, oh,oh oh oh
We're winning 'til the curtain's coming down
