[Verse 1]
Yeah, I know a place where kings and paupers
Drink with the dreamers and the cheaters and the lawyers
And the dealers deal aces from a loaded stack of cards
Now what if I told you a place existed
Where the magic in the air tastes like moonlight on the lips
And no hand in the deck can beat a pair of hearts?

[Chorus]
Everybody's got their arms around
Everybody else's shoulders
Guardin' against the world outside
Like an army of Friday night soldiers
The battle wages tomorrow
But tonight you don't give a damn
Wish you could stay the way I see you
Through my Ray-Bans

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
I see a place where a moment in time
Is a kaleidoscope of color on a canvas of white
Where the voices roar at the noise of the poet's rhyme
Would you believe my story or buy what I'm sellin'
If I told you the tale I'm in the middle of tellin'
Is as true as the blue in the grass or the green in the sky?
[Chorus]
Everybody's got their arms around
Everybody else's shoulder
Guardin' against the world outside
Like an army of Friday night soldiers
The battle wages tomorrow
But tonight we don't give a damn
Wish you could stay the way I see you
Through my Ray-Bans

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Chorus]
Everybody's got their arms around
Everybody else's shoulders
Guardin' against the world outside
Like an army of Friday night soldiers
The battle wages tomorrow
But tonight we've got a drink in our hand
Wish you could stay the way I see you
Through my Ray-Bans

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Ooh, ooh)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Ooh)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Ooh, ooh)
Ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh (Ooh, ooh)
