lyrics

Welcome to our den of wildest dreams
Our promise of good fortune is as it seems
Friendly service is always near
Everyone's really keen to keep you here
So take a load of and play a few games
Make a few friends, Learn a few names
Pit your fortunes against others too
Never know how far your luck will take you
We know there's something your heart desires
That there are heights to which you aspire
We're here to give you a chance my friend
We'll stay with you until the very end
Risk a little wealth for alot more
Or feel free to give up and walk out the door
But no one out there will provide the means
For a quick fix route to your dreams

You stay for the ultimate prize
But all you get is surefire demise
Why can't you see through all the lies

You can't depend on luck of the gods
Soon you will fall fowl of the odds

Neon, flashing lights and promise of riches
No better temptress is required
Set the deck stacked in your favour
Cut one, cut twice and continue the ruse
Cards, chips and bones, our weapons of choice
A smooth smile carefully placed words
No movement without purpose, distraction and sleight of hand
Give a little in order to take much much more
Now you've bought in, you're here for the count
When we're done profiteering, you can leave
Oh you'll come back for more, thinking you can do better
But ultimately the house always wins

You stay for the ultimate prize
But all you get is surefire demise
Why can't you see through all the lies

You can't depend on luck of the gods
Soon you will fall fowl of the odds
