The House Always Wins |
| Welcome to The Lucky 38, glad you could make the trip |
| The crowning jewel in the oasis of the Vegas Strip |
| I’m Robert Edwin House, the founder of this place of rest |
| A haven for the wayward, that’s to say, if you can pay the rent |
| Understand that if you try to stop my plans you’ll come to harm |
| I ensure that every bandit standing here has just one arm |
| I eschewed the grandeur, built a land for all that’s free from smarm |
| But show your hand, I’ll flush you out straight down to the farm |
| You blunder in and wonder if |
| A bunch of chips can run the strip? |
| A hundred twits with guns and clips |
| Have tried their luck and lost the bet |
| I funded it — I’m one with it |
| So watch your lip or run the risk |
| 'Cus if you’re here to plunder it |
| You might just end up under it |
| You can hit them, you can fold them |
| Stack the deck and weigh the dice |
| All that glitters isn’t golden |
| Cash that cheque you’ll pay the price |
| Might be safer in the desert |
| Only dust to judge your sins |
| But those who wager aren’t so clever |
| 'Cus in heaven |
| Well, the House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the-) |
| (Place your bets but the-) |
| You want to see the profits of democracy? |
| Then go and see 'em |
| Across the street, a bunch of freaks are playing Colosseum |
| Honestly? |
| Was the world you wanted what you got to see? |
| When you were dropping crosses into boxes behind polling screens? |
| Was dropping bombs your chosen option? |
| Did you vote for screams? |
| Was the apocalypse your politician’s policy? |
| Did you put stock in their prepostering and prophesy? |
| A shining future built on squabble-free equality? |
| That every day you’d get your plate of steak and collard greens? |
| That the human race was capable of anything but wanton greed? |
| But now that world is gone and what lived on belongs to me |
| That freedom you so wanted’s now the cost of living comfortably |
| Peace is just a product with a focus test of billions |
| And the test was unsuccessful so we altered it’s description |
| «Your safety now provided by the guys at RobCo Services!» |
| For one ongoing price of your unwavering subservience |
| Impressed? |
| I raised the stakes, returned this land to vibrance |
| Witness as I raise estates from mud and random violence |
| Business is the way to stay the bloody hand of tyrants |
| Convinced yet? |
| Sail and ask my buddy Andrew Ryan |
| A grip of iron never tires |
| Head of ire, lead and wires |
| Neon veins in ancient spires |
| Pump the caps and I respire |
| The economy is ash, I didn’t light the fire |
| But I can always turn a profit sweeping up the pyre |
| You can hit them, you can fold them |
| Stack the deck and weigh the dice |
| All that glitters isn’t golden |
| Cash that cheque you’ll pay the price |
| Might be safer in the desert |
| Only dust to judge your sins |
| But those who wager aren’t so clever |
| 'Cus in heaven |
| Well, the House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the-) |
| (Place your bets but the-) |
| I saw the path, I preempted those ascending arms |
| My gilded heart beats forever on to mend the scars |
| I built an ark out of empty spas and trendy bars |
| Mended the families |
| Befriended with the N.C.R |
| I raised the wasteland from a band of little fight clubs |
| I handle situations delicately |
| White Gloves |
| I’m the Chairman of the board taxing on your survival |
| Out to murder competition then sit back and hike the price up |
| Oh no — A society trapped in a snow globe? |
| No surprises, the Rapture’s a no-show |
| Undeniably tragic, there’s no hope |
| The Mojave is savage, it’s no home |
| Until I came to manage the whole show |
| Took the glitz and the glamor and showboats |
| Built a bastion for man for my 'folio |
| And officially branded it RobCo |
| With just a pair of dice I came and tamed these earthly wastes |
| I built a paradise, you might as well desert your faith |
| Long ago when we aimed armageddon at those pearly gates |
| I used that molten gold to rebuild heaven at The Thirty-Eight |
| You can hit them, you can fold them |
| Stack the deck and weigh the dice |
| All that glitters isn’t golden |
| Cash that cheque you’ll pay the price |
| Might be safer in the desert |
| Only dust to judge your sins |
| But those who wager aren’t so clever |
| 'Cus in heaven |
| Well, the House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the House always wins) |
| House always wins |
| (Place your bets but the-) |
| (Place your bets but the-) |
| (Always wins) |
| (Always wins) |
| (House always wins) |
