Domino waiting for the show to catch up with his life
well gee you know I guess I could go for a little bit of spotlight
so he drank real deep and he fell asleep ‘til he really couldn't find the floor
and all he's got left is a mohair vest and a couple of guests say they know him best

so long ago Domino made up his mind to blow his chances to see
it was part of the plan to put a delicate man out to sea
so with his friends all around he could drown and drown and call it destiny
and say that I'm cursed and dive head first well look at me I'm lost at sea well

slow down and think about what you’re doing
slow down and think about what you know
slow down all you’re doing is talking stupid
when it all comes down and it all comes true
you live alone and live it through

so Domino alone with his silver and gold his friends have gone
yeah, they stopped stopping by and getting high and taking his calls
so the next big thing sits down to sing about paying his dues
while safe in the arms of a Venus charm who will tie his shoes

chorus
