Farewell, farewell Marcy
Our planets went astray
How good we were
Remember it that way
We caught an early evening flight
Farewell, farewell Marcy
We kept bad company
High speed wrecks
In junkyard misery
We landed in the sand at night
Land of opportunity
We couldn't get one right
Land of opportunity
We couldn't get one right
Farewell, farewell Marcy
We rode the radio waves
Hardscrabble ground
Into our crystal cave
We danced until we were bled white
Land of opportunity
We couldn't get one right
Land of opportunity
We couldn't get one right
Las Vegas
What happens there's meant to stay there
Las Vegas
Was where gambled each other away
Farewell, farewell Marcy
Our planets went astray
How good we were
Remember us that way
