he lives on his own

the tv's on loan

he watches old movies

he lives in a flat

the lino's all cracked

but he's got plans bingo



he sings like sinatra with more feel

plays with his pocket roulette wheel all day

and no one stopped him



he got away

waited all this time with

all this scratching around

in one place made it just in time

all this talk about luck



he's just so loaded

he's just so loaded down



he gets on a plane

he changes his name

he flies off to las vegas



he saved up for years

cashed in his fears

he always had plans bingo



he packs up his white lounge lizard suit

plenty of hairspray and a big cigar

and no one stopped him



he got away

took him 40 years

to plan his route of escape

from this place made it just in time with

all this talk about luck



he's just so loaded

he's just so loaded down



the first time he flew

watched the vegas skyline

gently melt into view

all this booze swore he just saw elvis

playing poker at dunes



he's just so loaded

he's just so loaded

he's just so loaded now
