The vocal melody of this song is similar to that of Guts on My Side, a song by King Crimson (of which John Wetton had previously been a member) that was only ever once played live and never recorded in the studio.
[Verse 1]
Creamed-up kitten screaming for her next injection
Dead dog in the driveway, protein for infection
The most exclusive restaurants got a few uninvited diners
Don't worry if you're underage, they've special schemes for minors
[Chorus 1]
Caesar's Palace Blues
Caesar's Palace Blues
[Verse 2]
I lost my shirt on my last hand, I nearly sold my shoes
I came up trumps last weekend so I've got to pay my dues
Cards fall, faces change, cat's cunning shows
Same rules still apply, either way you lose
Lovers on the carpet, Cupid's dream for certain
There's always someone hiding right behind the hotel curtain
Concealed cameras in casinos and bugs under your bed
But all the gold in Vegas wouldn't bring Caesar back from dead
[Chorus 2]
Caesar's Palace Blues
Caesar's Palace Blues
Caesar's Palace Blues
Caesar's Palace Blues
