"Blue hair, cold stare
All day long, sittin’ there
The phone rings on time
Been a while since we seen your dime

Just can’t leave yet, gotta place my bet
Can’t live without sittin’ here throughout
They love me
My drinks are all free
Keep ‘em coming and I’ll keep doublin’

It’s just pennies and dimes
No one needs to know I’m lying
Give a little and take some more
Play and drink ‘til you’re on the floor

My only friend is here
He calls me and he leers
Makes sure that I’m getting my fill
‘cuz someone’s gotta foot the bill

Take, take, take, that’s what they say
No one else cares anyway

All my friends are sittin’ here
Jack and Ace and Queen Vermeer
Keep ‘em coming

Blue hair, cold stare
All day long, sittin’ there

The phone rings on time
Been a while since we seen your dime
Just can’t leave yet, gotta place my bet
Can’t live without sittin’ here throughout

They love me
My drinks are all free
Keep ‘em coming and I’ll keep doublin’"
