[Smooth Mikey]
[Verse 1]
In the dyin’ l
ight of Malone
’s twin suns
Setting o’er t
he cityscape
I find ya in t
he back of an
orphan-house
Dreamin’ of es
cape
[Verse 2]
Well, the name
’s Smooth Mick
ey, I been wat
chin’ your wor
k
An’ I like the
way that it b
urns
But ya don’ un
derstand who r
uns this world
An’ I think it
’s time you le
arned
[Chorus]
Well, the Luck
y Sevens, they
rule the stre
ets
The dice are l
oaded an’ they
play for keep
s
The fire burns
bright, In th
e cool, dark n
ight
When the Seven
s are in luck
[Verse 3]
So take my han
d an’ let’s ge
t out of here
Uncle Mickey w
ill show ya th
e way
We can use you
r pyromaniacal
talents
Ashes, what d’
ya say?
[Ashes]
[Verse 4]
All eleven yea
rs of my life
I’ve been alon
e, and now the
re’s you
So hand me the
matches and t
he gasoline
‘Cause we’ve g
ot work to do
[Chorus]
Well I’m a Luc
ky Seven, I’m
a mob elite
I got loaded d
ice and I was
born to cheat
The fire burns
bright, In th
e heat of the
night
‘Cause the Sev
ens are in luc
k
[Instrumental]
x2
[Verse 5]
Mickey, I’ve b
een a Seven a
long long time
Twelve years i
f it’s been a
day
But the Aces a
re moving on o
ur turf
And they seem
to know our pl
ay
[Verse 6]
We got a stool
pigeon in our
ranks
I’ve been hunt
ing down the s
nitch
The trail lead
s back to you,
Uncle dear
And payback go
nna be a bitch
[Smooth Mikey]
[Verse 7]
Well, I always
knew ya were
a real smart k
id
I figured you’
d track me dow
n
But they don’t
call me Smoot
h Mickey for n
othin’
I’m the big bo
ss of this tow
n
[Verse 8]
Ya see, I need
ed a fall guy
For the Sevens
to send to th
e grave
An’ by the smo
ke that ya sme
ll and the hea
t that ya feel
You can guess
whose name I g
ave
[Chorus]
Well, the Luck
y Sevens, they
got you beat
Your dice may
be loaded, but
they melt in
the heat
The fire burns
bright, Under
you tonight
‘Cause Ashes,
you’re outta l
uck
[Verse 9]
Oh, the fire s
corches your f
lesh
An’ the smoke
fills your lun
gs
Looks like ya
rolled snake-e
yes, Ashes O’R
eilly
I guess your g
ame is done
[Instrumental]

[Intrumental]
[Both]
[Chorus]
Well, the Luck

The fire burns

where tonight
‘Cause the Sev
ens
The Sevens
The Sevens are
out of luck
