Pair O` Dice Lost — текст песни (Sudden Death)

{*a parody of Coolio`s song Gangsta`s Paradise*}

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)
