small stakes

give you the blues

but you don't feel taken

don't think you've been used



cause it's alright Friday night to Sunday

it feels alright keeps your mind on the page



oh yeah small stakes ensure you the minimum blues

but you don't feel taken and you don't feel abused

small stakes tell you that there's nothing can do

can't think big, can't think past one or two and alright!

yeah alright!



me and my friends

sell ourselves

short but feel

very well



we feel fine

aw we feel fine



and small time danger in your midsize car

I don't dig the stripes but I'll go for har mar

the big innovation on the minimum wage

is lines up your nose but your life on the page so c'mon

tell me I'm wrong



small stakes

will kill me

when you're stuck

in back of the line



it feels alright Friday night to Sunday

aw it feels alright keeps your mind on the page



and small stakes bring you where you're caught in a rut

you feel so uptight you just want to throw it all up

and small stakes leave you with the minimum blues

can't think big, can't think past one or two so c'mon
