Shark Naked - Three Bags Full

In a hotel off the beaten track
Duncan hides out till the coast is clear
He just lost his shirt, and shoes and pants
Betting ponies at The Velvedeer
Two more hours and he'll head for home
Where addiction is a nasty word
And he'll convince his bride, he'll win big soon
In spite of what she may have heard
Three bags full, three bags full
Grand illusions
Fill three bags full
Molly takes her clothes off for a modest fee
And she dances "When The Levee Breaks"
As she worms her way inside the hearts
Of the glassy-eyed business snakes
She always said "Just one more year"
Then she'd have enough to go to school
But it's been ten hard years
Her daughter understands the symptoms of a fool
Three bags full, three bags full
Grand illusions
Fill three bags full
Balloons don't leave the ground when they're pumped with lies
The black sheep pulls the wool over hopeful eyes
And candy coated stories
Are just like putting out fire with gasoline
In a hotel off the beaten track
Duncan still believes he'll win the race
And Molly steps onto the smoky stage
Pretending tears will hide a broken face
Three bags full, three bags full
Grand illusions
Fill three bags full
Three bags full, three bags full
Grand illusions
Fill three bags full
Three bags full
Grand illusions
Fill three bags full
