We bet on our lives and we bet on the horses

In that upstairs apartment

On Orlando and 4th

Nightlife's a no-win but nobody noticed

The dog days barked and the house cat got old

As we walked around in the emperor's new clothes
We flew by our wits and by the seat of our pants
In the state of illusion
In the nation of chance
And the repo was hauling the wreck we'd been driving
As the dashboard Madonna
Smiled back at us kindly
We cheated the system never batting an eyelid
Seeing only the good
Through the holes in our shoes
And our halos were rusty but we wore them proudly
We were two little gods
In the emperor's new clothes
