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 and I'm just gettin' ready to go
|
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 and Lester's gettin' ready to roll
|
|
[Instrumental]
|
|
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 with one last bet
|
Nothin' can stop my thirty-two hop
|
Or my ten dollar yo-yo-yo
|
It's midnight got nowhere to go
|
