[Verse 1]
Out of bed at half past six
Get ready for the night shift
Practice all my magic tricks
Is this your card? I flick my wrist

Got my heart set on the jackpot
But I slipped up, I got diddly squat
[Chorus]
Blood is rushing in, I can't remember when
It wasn't such a sin to try and lose again
It's time for the curtains to close

Wash the makeup off my face
I'm so sick of the rat race
Throw away dreams I used to chase
[Chorus]
My nose is cherry red
I'm hanging by a thread
The same day lays ahead
I sleep away the dread
It's time for the curtains to close
Hanging up my shoes
I've lost what I could lose
Not one to pick and choose
I'm missing all my cues
It's time for the curtains to close
[Outro]
Hope that you enjoyed the show
