about

Tim tells me I've mistimed the sax part of this track, but I've destroyed the original elements so it's too late to fix anything.

lyrics

Bright Lights Shining, golden lining
Gotta keep those big stars signing
Top to bottom, gleaming Sodom,
If you're looking for the stars we've got 'em here.
Become somebody, find renown
In Money Town.

Always sunny, always money
Land of fun and games and milk and honey
Vegas wedding, wipe-down bedding
Land of Liberty is where you're heading,
Take off your hat, equip a crown
In Money Town.

Spend those winnings
Ever grinning
If it's confident, it isn't sinning
Play life's lotto
Wake up blotto
Everywhere you go's a Santa's Grotto.
Come to money town
Come to money town
Wolfcastle!

Easy women, all the trimmings
So much whiskey flows, enough to swim in
Stimulation, celebration,
Any novel form of penetration, now.
All merriments state law will allow,
In Money Town.

So much wine a man could drown
In Money Town

You'll be high, never down
In Money Town.

Touched down in Vegas and the place looked like a million dollars
Just had my coat, my hat, and a million dollars,
And a booking for the evening and a glittering dream
And a hunger for a woman and a Krispy Kreme

I paraded my money, and soon I'd been sold
A silver Chevrolet, and one of solid gold
A suit made of saffron and eau de cologne
A platinum sandwich, with beef on the bone

I'll be king of the city and make all the love
I'll be singing downstairs, and romancing above
It's hot and it's pretty, it's Heaven and Hell
The Wolfcastle suite in the biggest hotel
