[00:05.184] That's how the story ends, and this is how it begins
[00:10.051]
[00:11.107] It was hard, my father discharged from the armada
[00:14.645] He counted cards and moved our family to Nevada
[00:18.319] And started going to bars, beat mom like a piñata
[00:22.002] I dropped out, got outta there, whatever, yadda yadda
[00:25.963] By the time that I was 16, I cut ties with everybody in my life
[00:31.887] Soon I found myself surfing sofas, so I forged my diploma
[00:40.494] Now I'm here, middle management
[00:43.232] Imagine that, without an upper graduate
[00:45.283] Adamantly battling my abandonment
[00:48.330] From years of getting let down, down, down
[00:51.900] I've learned to keep my head down, down, down
[00:55.277]
[00:56.569] They say all kinds of clichés here
[01:00.752] Like, "What happens here stays here"
[01:04.119] I know
[01:05.471] But that don't happen here in Reno
[01:09.080]
[01:09.284] Mariana drives a 1956 teal pickup truck
[01:13.635] The windows rolled down, the radio up
[01:16.441] Cruising Interstate 80 on the bank of the Truckee
[01:20.569] Banking on getting lucky
[01:22.341] Ain't working, but she's still making money from nothing
[01:25.320] 'Cause she's got the body of a prom queen
[01:28.356] A former cocktail waitress who drinks J&B
[01:32.251] She looks 30, is a dirty blonde but was born a brunette
[01:35.851] And yet, that incredible cleavage is as real as it gets
[01:39.453] She's a regular at Ray's, the bar next to the Eldorado
[01:43.477] Looks for men in designer threads like they're the Nevada lotto
[01:46.862] Often dating losers and liquidating their wallets
[01:50.642] She does her best to get by since her first husband bought it
[01:54.725]
[01:54.881] They say all kinds of clichés here
[01:59.756] Like, "What happens here stays here"
[02:02.989] I know
[02:04.499] But that don't happen here in Reno
[02:08.499]
[02:08.954] That night I stumbled into Ray's with exhaustion on my face
[02:12.759] Two to one, the Silver Sox hanging on to first place
[02:16.527] A fan of minor league games since I was in second grade
[02:20.246] And Ray has happy hour all night long on days of the games
[02:23.679] Dropped in directly from work in my Monday, Wednesday suit
[02:28.070] A crocheted blue scarf my ex made me last June
[02:31.364] After I got demoted, ne'er saw coming but it did
[02:34.947] Instead my boss hired his lover who's his best friend's kid
[02:38.623]
[02:39.133] They say all kinds of clichés here
[02:43.912] Like, "What happens here stays here"
[02:47.473] I know
[02:48.881] But that don't happen here in Reno
[02:52.703]
[02:53.066] She pointed to the stool next to me, "Is someone sitting here?"
[02:57.461] "No, please take a seat, the Silver Sox got the lead"
[03:00.790] She rolled her eyes and bumped her elbow into mine
[03:04.318] Spilled whiskey on my brand new shirt and tie
[03:08.063] "I'm sorry, what's your name?" "Duran, and yours?"
[03:11.696] "Mariana, I live near the Grand Sierra Resort"
[03:15.505] We got a round on the house, one-point-five ounces
[03:19.630] Got piss-drunk and talked about bouncing
[03:23.324]
[03:23.655] They say all kinds of clichés here
[03:28.449] Like, "What happens here stays here"
[03:31.382] I know
[03:33.166] But that don't happen here in Reno
[03:37.038]
[03:37.791] She stabbed at her lock, turned and grabbed my cock
[03:41.910] Pulled at my tie and unraveled the knot
[03:44.980] She said she'd be right back to freshly powder her nose
[03:48.743] So, I snooped around and made myself at home
[03:52.490] She had collages on the wall with most of the faces missing
[03:56.268] In her class pictures, even ones with her kissing
[03:59.828] And then she entered the room in full lingerie
[04:03.938] Turned on the record and pumped up the bass
