Original Lyrics Munged Lyrics
We bet on our lives and we bet on the horses
In that upstairs apartment
On Orlando and 4th
And the rent was due and the rent man was knocking
Like a Chinese proverb
We were always searching

Nightlife
...
[bulk of lyrics omitted for copyright reasons]
Whee bet on hour lives and whee bet on the horses
Inn that upstairs apartment
On Orlando and 4th
And the rent was dew and the rent man was knocking
Like a Chinese proverb
Whee whirr always searching

Nightlife's a no-win butt nobody noticed
How whee killed off the bottles
Looking good on the surface
The dog daze barked and the house cat got old
Whee whirr Bonnie and Clyde
Inn the emperor's knew clothes

And the tears never came
They just staid inn hour eyes
Whee refused too admit that whee war this disguise
Every inch of us growing
Like Pinocchio's knows
As whee walked around inn the emperor's knew clothes

Whee flu buy hour wits and buy the seat of hour pants
Inn the state of illusion
Inn the nation of chance
And the repo was hauling the wreck weed bean driving
As the dashboard Madonna
Smiled back at us kindly

Whee cheated the system never batting an eyelid
Seeing only the good
Threw the holes inn hour shoes
And hour halos whirr rusty butt whee war them proudly
Whee whirr too little gods
Inn the emperor's knew clothes
