[Verse 1]
I’m headed for the sin city where the pretty women and liquor is sweet
The money spreadin’ like the air that you live and you breathe
Flashing lights, celebrities everywhere
Jealousy everywhere, the pressure of heavy stares, yeah
Model vixen on my lap while I’m Moscato sippin'
She says she loves me but I know she’s on that Scottie Pippen:
Bullshit, she prolly gave it up to my assistant
She’ll give it to me for the money, like a lotto ticket
Meheh, materialism and betrayal
Is this what I’ve been dreamin of since I was just a day old?
My friends are wonderin', 'will he every be the same though?'
They feel me change by the minute, like a payphone
I used to be a simple man with a simple life
But all the splendor ain’t real: Crystal Light
Now all this green that once shined is my kryptonite
I wonder if I’d change a thing if I lived it twice

[Chorus]
Sin City
Sin City
Sin City
You don’t even know
How I lose myself
Even I can’t tell
Is this heaven
Or is this Sin City?

[Post-Chorus]
There’s smoke in the mirror
No light in my eyes
No concept of time
There ain’t no more substance but the substance I drink in my glass
I'm not the first and I won't be the last

[Verse 2]
She hid the rubbers from me
My bourbon nearly finished off, she brings another for me
She whispers in my ear, her clothin' disappears
She says the pleasure’s better than pain, don’t let it interfere
I barely hear my phone buzzin' over the slow fuckin'
Missed calls, don’t even take 'em from my own mother
Great friends are now replaced by the fake friends
No room for family, even though my heart is vacant
[Chorus]
Sin City
Sin City
Sin City
You don’t even know
How I lose myself
Even I can’t tell
Is this heaven
Or is this Sin City?

[Verse 3]
Remember when they tried to tell me I was pipe dreamin'
That dynamite season, knew any second I was gon' blow like breathin'
Huh, now I’m surrounded by these bloodsucking type leeches
Try to weed 'em out 'cause they inhale like demons
The paranoia grows when they put the camera’s on ya
Sometimes I think about my ex but never dare to call her
Okay, maybe I drunk dial from a different number
I wonder if she’s thinking of me like I’m thinking of her
Uh, and now I’m thinking of her
These model bitches drinkin' up my liqueur
Whores, so get the fuck out, don’t sit on my bed
I kinda wish I was dead

[Pre-Chorus]
I lost my head
On a train headed for Grand Central Station
And call back home, let 'em know
They can cancel my reservations
I’m headed for the sin city where
The money flows like purple rain
I’m headed for the sin city where
The money flows like purple rain
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah
[Chorus]
Sin City
Sin City
Sin City
You don’t even know
How I lose myself
Even I can’t tell
Is this heaven
Or is this Sin City?
