Little Bribes Full Lyrics
[00:08.94] The Eiffel Tower built to smaller scale
[00:12.58] The freshest oxygen I'd ever inhale
[00:16.25] I tapped a bottle against the safety rail
[00:19.33] Killing time
[00:23.43] And you were like a walking compliment
[00:28.08] Tall in stature and exceptionally read
[00:31.55] In dummy glasses and a cardigan
[00:34.36] Oh come on
[00:38.77] And oh so empty were the faces
[00:40.53] Of the dealers and the waitresses around
[00:46.61] You said that all these things you've learned to ignore
[00:50.21] The hidden cameras on the casino floor
[00:54.14] And what gets paid for behind hotel doors
[00:57.16] Oh come on
[01:01.22] Pretend every slot machine is a robot
[01:03.82] Amputee waving hello
[01:08.73] The people stare into their eyes
[01:10.41] And they feed them little bribes
[01:12.57] And then they go
[01:28.72] The never ending twilight
[01:32.43] In a basement where the sun has never spilt
[01:36.73] You said that you were lonely
[01:39.38] And then we kissed like lonely people do
[01:54.65] You said this city has a beating heart
[01:58.79] That pushes people down the boulevard
[02:02.44] And they're all hoping for a wish fulfilled
[02:05.99] In a desert for a dollar bill
[02:10.68] Those foolish dreams you know they plague me still
[02:12.88] Oh come on
[02:16.99] And oh so empty were the faces
[02:18.91] Of the dealers and the waitresses around
[02:24.53] And oh so empty were the faces
[02:26.47] Of the dealers and the waitresses around
[02:32.56] Empty ...
[02:42.86]
