Bài hát Little Bribes Báo Lỗi

"Little Bribes"


The Eiffel tower built to smaller scale

The freshest oxygen I'd ever inhale

I tapped a bottle against a safety rail, killing time


And you were like a walking compliment

Tall in stature and exceptionally read

In dummy glasses and a cardigan

Oh, come on


And oh so empty were the faces of the dealers And the waitresses around


You said that all these things you've learned to ignore

The hidden cameras on the casino floor

And what gets paid for behind hotel doors

Oh, come on


You pretend every slot machine is a robot amputee waving hello

The people stare into their eyes and they feed them little bribes and then they go


The never-ending twilight

In a basement where the sun has never spilt

You said that you were lonely

And then we kissed like lonely people do


You said the city has a beating heart

That pushes people down the boulevard

And they're all hoping for a wish fulfilled

In a desert for a dollar bill

Those foolish dreams, you know they plague me still

Oh, come on


And oh so empty were the faces

Of the dealers and the waitresses around [X2]


They're empty
