Jimmy Eat World - Big Casino

New song by Jimmy Eat World called Big Casino

Before this world starts up again
It's me and night
We wait for the sun
The kids and drunks head back inside

Well there's lots of smart ideas in books I've never read
When the girls come talk to me I wish to hell I had

(Get Up, Get Up) Turn my ignition
(Get Up, Get Up) Fire up the system
I play my little part in something big

I'll accept with poise, with grace
When they draw my name from the lottery
And they'll say 'All the salt in the world couldn't melt that ice'
I'm the one who gets away
I'm a New Jersey success story
And they'll say 'Lord, give me a chance to shake that hand'
(They'll say)

Back when I was younger I was someone you'd've liked
Got an old guitar I'd had for years I'd let you buy
And I'll tell you something else that you ain't dying enough to know
There's still some living left when your prime comes and goes

(Get Up, Get Up) Dance on the ceiling
(Get Up, Get Up) Boy, you must be dreamin'
Rock on young saviour, don't give up your hopes

I'll accept with poise, with grace
When they draw my name from the lottery
And they'll say 'All the salt in the world couldn't melt that ice'
I'm the one who gets away
I'm a New Jersey success story
And they'll say 'Lord, give me the chance to shake that hand'

I have one last wish
And it's from my heart
Just let me down
Just let me down (easy)

I'll accept with poise, with grace
When they draw my name from the lottery
And they'll say 'All the salt in the world couldn't melt that ice'
I'm the one who gets away
I'm a New Jersey success-story
And they'll say 'Lord, give me a chance to shake his hand'
(They'll say)

I adore this song. When I first heard it on the radio, I was blown away and just HAD to find out the artist.

Jimmy Eat World is fabulous!

"I have one last wish

And it's from my heart

Just let me down

Just let me down (easy)"

Just amazing.

This is about the best pop song in years. Period. I can't get it out of my head.

It should be on Wikipedia under "Pop Music".

Great hooks, excellent lyrics, wonderful sound.

I just want to lay down in a field of grass

and stare at the stars and blare this song all night long.

it's beautiful - and this whole song is totally me!

It's a bummer music isn't the same anymore.

This is one of few songs I like to call "epic songs" because it sounds to grand and breathtaking. It's like something from a movie, and what iowafilmdude22 said: If I could play this song whenever I wanted, I'd play it at some amazing life-changing moment. <3
