Spinning ball
Audible sad sighs
Spinning ball chooses its home
On the roulette's wheel
Casino visit
All dressed up for the evening
I am bust I say
Sally stares amazed
She just doesn't believe me
Just kidding I say
You're just not meant to win
You cannot beat the system
We move to the bar
Music is playing
Relaxing background
Cheap drinks, more to bet
This place exists
If it is how you like your kicks
Persuasive venue
Rather be with you
Than make a mess of my life
I think that trumps all

Better to take the sure bet rather than the house odds!
