Casino Vampiro

Eugene Mcguinness

Vampire Casino

Did your lucky numbers arrive
In the roll of the dice
In the fire of your eyes where there once was love

I heard they kicked you out to the back road
Of the Vampire Casino
Still clutching thirteen chips and spitting blood

You were climbing up a decent din
A scarlet tear-drunk singing
'One day I will make the women throw'

You were dialling up more endless ghosts of your past
But it's left ringing
'Cos they see your name appear when the screen glows

Did you hear the laughs and the gasps
From a cast in the play
You were a hit
You were off-script and in love

It was just two hours to go
Before the Vampire Casino
Took your hat, sat you down and sucked your blood

Casino Vampiro

¿Llegaron tus números de la suerte
En el lanzamiento de los dados
En el fuego de tus ojos donde una vez hubo amor?

Escuché que te echaron al camino trasero
Del Casino Vampiro
Aún aferrado a trece fichas y escupiendo sangre

Estabas subiendo a un ruido decente
Cantando borracho de lágrimas escarlatas
'Un día haré que las mujeres se rindan'

Estabas marcando más fantasmas interminables de tu pasado
Pero queda sonando
Porque ven tu nombre aparecer cuando la pantalla brilla

¿Escuchaste las risas y los suspiros
De un elenco en la obra?
Fuiste un éxito
Estabas improvisando y enamorado

Faltaban solo dos horas
Antes de que el Casino Vampiro
Tomara tu sombrero, te sentara y chupara tu sangre
