Penny Arcade

Roy Orbison
kar by Mike M (December 2000)

A light shown in the night
Some way ahead
Blue turned into green
Then it was red

And stirring the night
Love music played
The light I saw in the night
Was a penny arcade

"Step up and play"
Each machine seemed to say
As I walked round and round the penny arcade
Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle
And you'll make all the colored lights cascade
And music played in the penny arcade
Yes it played and it played
Played all the time
Roll up and spend your last dime

At first I thought it a dream
That I was in
Lost, lost in a sea of glass and tin
So dipping my hand
In the back of my jeans
I grabbed a handful of coins
To feed the machines

"Step up and play"
Each machine seemed to say
As I walked round and round the penny arcade
Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle
And you'll make all the colored lights cascade
And music played in the penny arcade
Yes it played and it played
Played all the time
Roll up and spend your last dime

A light shown in the night
Some way ahead
Blue turned into green
Then it was red

And stirring the night
Love music played
The light I saw in the night
Was a penny arcade

"Step up and play"
Each machine seemed to say
As I walked round and round the penny arcade
Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle
And you'll make all the colored lights cascade
And music played in the penny arcade
Yes it played and it played
Played all the time
Roll up and spend your last
Roll up and spend your last
Roll up and spend your last dime
