Feeling Lucky?

*Lemon*  *Lemon*  *Lemon*


Ching! Ching! Ching! Ching! Ching! Ching! Ching! Ching! Ching!
The sounds, oh, the never ending sound
My ears are assaulted with the ring
As quarters are spit out by the pound.

Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang! Clang!
Looking direct into flashing lights
Causes spots flashing as each shrill bell sang.
How does someone stand it for long nights?

Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough! Cough!
Hearing impaired, blinded, and hacking,
The smoking section floor plan begged off,
Enforcement of law sorely slacking.

Coffee, Coke, gum?  Coffee, soda, tea? 
Water, I croaked in feeble reply, 
Anything more would unravel me.
Tip, or else I would kiss my drink bye.

Chinging, clanging, flashing and smoking
Wherever I go to spend my dough
I am blinking, wheezing and choking
Whether palace is Caesar’s or Bingo.
