Small Stakes |
Small stakes |
Give you blues |
But you don’t feel taken |
Don’t think you’ve been used |
'Cause it’s alright Friday night to Sunday |
It feels alright, keeps your mind on the page |
Oh yeah, small stakes ensure you the minimum blues |
But you don’t feel taken and you don’t feel abused |
Small stakes tell you that there’s nothing can do |
Can’t think big, can’t think past one or two and alright! |
Yeah, alright! |
Me and my friends |
Sell ourselves |
Short but feel |
Very well |
We feel fine |
Aw, we feel fine |
And small time danger in your midsize car |
I don’t dig the Stripes but I’ll go for Har Mar |
The big innovation on the minimum wage |
Is lines up your nose but your life on the page, so c’mon |
Tell me I’m wrong |
Small stakes |
Will kill time |
When you’re stuck |
In back of the line |
It feels alright Friday night to Sunday |
Aw, it feels alright, keeps your mind on the page |
And small stakes bring you where you’re caught in a rut |
You feel so uptight, you just want to throw it all up |
And small stakes leave you with the minimum blues |
Can’t think big, can’t think past one or two, so c’mon |
