Lyrics

Sifting through tokens, slashed up tickets for paying the toll
It's the prospect of winning that takes you home
All play, no light of day, makes you wish you never begun
I'll stay, no way out of this bet
It'll make you forget all you had said
Like "I'll never do it" and "I know how to stop"
Playing till you make up all that you've lost

Please don't ignore what is plainly before you
Lay down a pound or a penny or two
And the winner takes all and the loser must lose
You know the excitement, the adrenaline too
If you wish to succeed, then fail you must too
No going back when you've locked in your prize
Go home with nothing or meet your demise

They'll say if you dont want to stay
Then you aren't made for this
If you don't want to play, each shot's a miss
All of us lose but it keeps us here
If we can taste defeat we can savor the win
If it means one more drink
Well boy we're all in
