Vampire Casino - Eugene McGuinness

Did your lucky numbers arrive

In the roll of the dice

In the fire of your eyes where there once was love

I heard they kicked you out to the back road

Of the Vampire Casino

Still clutching thirteen chips and spitting blood

You were climbing up a decent din

A scarlet tear-drunk singing

'One day I will make the women throw'

You were dialling up more endless ghosts of your past

But it’s left ringing

'Cos they see your name appear when the screen glows

Did you hear the laughs and the gasps

From a cast in the play

You were a hit

You were off-script and in love

It was just two hours to go

Before the Vampire Casino

Took your hat, sat you down and sucked your blood
