LA RE
Enter Madam X painted in a shocking pink spangled dress
MI LA
Her teeth are perfect but her mouth is loose
LA RE
Rubbing their hands together she persuades them that it's better to confess
MI LA
Which unpleasant fate they'd like to choose
(chorus)
RE
Every step might be your last
RE SOL
Money signs are in your eyes sucker

RE
You've been taken in this time
RE SOL
You might just get out alive if you're lucky
RE
All the vultures tuning in to Glitter Gulch
MI
Are looking in on you
LA
And they're hungry
He stood five feet tall in his elevator shoes and stovepipe hat
He was known by several different names
Prompted by Madam X he answered all their questions
And then after that he said I'm sick and tired of stupid games
(chorus)
SOL
We've got prizes if you can afford
RE
Some small humiliation before you get your reward
SOL
And I'd rather be an outlaw than an inlaw to you
LA(7)
And to live my life in miserable poverty
LA7
Than to have to grovel to have some dream home hovel
SOL LA
So watch me while I get away with prime time robbery
(chorus)
As he enters Madam X he things of red raged faces and the sweet greenbacks
He climbed upon his honey and he covered her with money
As they do their victory dance
He thinks I hope they choke upon their laughter tracks
They can all go straight to hell while we howl down the whole hotel
