Viva Las Vegas by The Residents Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Bright light city going to set my soul
Going to set my soul on fire
I got a whole lot of money that's ready to burn
So get them stakes up higher
Oh there's a thousand pretty women waiting out there
With brighter red lips and the devil may care
Well I'm just the devil with love to spare
In Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas

[Verse 2]
Oh how I wish that there were more
Than twenty-four hours in the day
And even if there was forty more
I wouldn't sleep a minute of it away
'cause, there's black jack, poker and roulette wheel
A fortune's won and lost on every deal
All you need's a strong heart and nerves of steel
In Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas

[Verse 3]
Viva Las Vegas has neon flashing
And craps tables crashing
Hopes right down the drain
Viva Las Vegas turns day into night
And the night turns right into the blaze
The blaze where life begins
[Verse 4]
Well I'm gonna keep on runnin'
Gonna have me some fun
Even if it costs me my very last dime
And if I wind up broke
I'll always remember that I had me a swinging time
I want to give it everything I've got
Lady luck let them dice stay hot
Let me shoot a seven with every shot
In Viva Las Vegas, Viva Las Vegas
Viva Las Vegas
Viva, Viva Las Vegas
