Casino

He's never been to Caesar's palace
Or any Vegas strip hotel
He prefers the local gaming hall
His little slice of hell
Stays in the smoking section
But don't like cigarettes
They're a little less judgmental
Don't say when to call it quits

There never was a reason
And certainly no plan
Nothing but a habit
Didn't feel so bad
Used to come with friends
Now some of them have moved
Some of them have families
Or something else to lose

He ain't every earned an honest dime
He ain't worked a damn day in his life
Somehow he's always got a cup of change jingling
Headed for the penny slot machines
Turn into a million (Hey)
Turn that million to a billion (Hey)
Turn that penny to a fortune (Hey)
Just something to piss away

Half a subway sandwich
And a cup of steamy joe
Ain't got nothing else to do
And nowhere else to go
Spends all night pulling levers
On a penny slot machine
Right on through the morning
While the staff is vacuuming

He ain't every earned an honest dime
He ain't worked a damn day in his life
Somehow he's always got a cup of change jingling
Headed for the penny slot machines
Turn into a million (Hey)
Turn that million to a billion (Hey)
Turn that penny to a fortune (Hey)
Just something to piss away

Sun has fully risen
And so he hits the road
Can't get very far
So let's the steam cling to the window
Now he he's by the station
No change to use the phone
For the biggest gamble ever
Was to deciding to call home

He ain't every earned an honest dime
He ain't worked a damn day in his life
Somehow he's always got a cup of change jingling
Headed for the penny slot machines
Turn into a million (Hey)
Turn that million to a billion (Hey)
Turn that penny to a fortune (Hey)
Just something to piss away
