Текст песни: Lay Your Wager Down + перевод

You’re my flesh and blood

But we’re not the same

A common name

And now

A common distance

I looked up to you

In your plush armchair

Respect or fear

I couldn’t see the difference

Lay your wager down

Who’ll be king in Tinsel Town?

'Cause all the prophets and the gypsies

On the strip in Venice Beach

Have looked me in the eye

And said, «Your dreams still lie in reach»

And who am I to doubt them

And who are you

To write these speeches?

Is it my poverty

That brings a blush to you?

Or the honesty

That speaks the mind

That comes with it

Were you once a man

With younger eyes

A hungry pride

That would not feel

Resistance?

Lay your wager down

They’re crowning the king in Tinsel Town

There are strangers, there are lovers

Out on Fairfax in a line

They look me in the eye

And say «Our thoughts are intertwined»

And who am I to doubt them?

And who are you to tear down

These signs?
