Randy Newman — Happy Ending lyrics

Lyrics

I feel the hot wind blowin' from the west to the east
I feel the hot wind blowin', can’t get no relief
I feel the hot wind blowin', ev’ry day and ev’ry night
I feel my confidence growin' and I know I’m gonna be alright
I see the volcanoes 'rupting and erupting, red walls of fire
I got corruption, seduction, destruction, reproduction
I got Las Vegas in my mind, seem like it’s stuck up in there
Like it’s been up there for all times
You can take your desert
Goddamn it, give me mine
'Cause I got Las Vegas in my mind
Through these portals, pass the rich and the famous
Through these portals, pass the very best at what they do Man, they’re the greatest, it’s the land of giant women
But the little man is king, here in Las Vegas
Man, they got ev’rything, run with it They got English girls with legs so long
You gotta use a stepladder to lick their love thing
It’s a family place too now, so bring the kids along
They’re gonna have a real good time here
They got wild women from Borneo
Playin' the piano in your bungalow
They got monkey women from the Amazon
Or something really funky from the lands beyond
They’re here in Las Vegas
They’re here in Las Vegas, Las Vegas
Man, I’m speaking in tongues
