(parody of "Gangsta's Paradise" by Coolio)
|
|
As I walk through Las Vegas oh this city is def
|
I take a look in my wallet and realize there's nothing left
|
'Cause I've been bettin' and losing for so long that
|
I still hear lots of bells and my money is gone
|
But I ain't never played a game that was really worth it
|
Me win on a slot machine, you know that's unheard of
|
But then this one machine I'm playing, just kept on payin'
|
Unfortunately that was the ATM
|
I bet through dinner time so I skip the meal
|
As the ball goes by my number on the roulette wheel
|
Damn, I'm the type of guy who never seems to beat the odds
|
But I'm back every night saying goodbye to the green gods
|
[chorus]
|
I keep paying out the price
|
When I roll this lousy pair o' dice
|
(repeat)
|
|
The dice are laughing at me, they always trap me
|
I can't roll a number seven, I get plagued by the craps
|
I put all my money down to throw my point
|
But not only don't I get it I don't see the point
|
My luck it all ran out 'cause I couldn't find the cork
|
Seen more craps in my life than a plumber from New York
|
I'm a brainwashed gambler and chronic cursor
|
But my luck's gotta change because it can't get worse
|
Piles of chips like to dwindle away
|
I make less in a year than what I lost today
|
I got 23 mortgages, should I make it 24?
|
Oh hell, it doesn't matter, just one more
|
|
Tell me why are we so blind to see
|
That they'll take us for every last penny?
|
(chorus)
|
|
Liquor and the money, money and the liquor
|
When alcohol is thinking, the money goes quicker
|
Everybody's betting, and most of them are losing
|
But they don't give a damn, because of all the boozing
|
My butt is going numb 'cause I lost the circulation
|
I can't afford the plane ticket back from my vacation
|
I'm outta cash, I'm outta luck, I stepped in crud
|
I think I'm gonna try and sell my blood now
|
(chorus)
