Penny Arcade

Many wonder why this is a Rangers song but a woman from Platoon used to sing it all the time at charity events and functions and it just sort of stuck. The Rangers fans got a great rendition of it going on the day we won our 53rd title and it was played over the Ibrox tannoy for the first time as the team did the lap of honour after the draw with Motherwell.

Lyrics

A light shown in the night some way ahead,

blue turned into green then it was red

And stirring the night love music played

the light I saw in the night was a penny arcade


Step up and play each machine seemed to say,

as I walked round and round the penny arcade

Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle

and youll make all those colored lights cascade

And music played at the penny arcade,

yes it played and it played, played all the time

Roll up and spend your last dime


At first I thought it a dream that I was in,

lost, lost in a sea of glass and tin

But no, so dipping my hand in the back of my jeans

I grabbed a handful of coins to feed the machine


Step up and play each machine seemed to say,

as I walked round and round the penny arcade

Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle

and youll make all those colored lights cascade

And music played at the penny arcade,

yes it played and it played, played all the time

Roll up and spend your last dime


And music played at the penny arcade,

yes it played and it played, played all the time

Roll up and spend your last dime


So, step up and play each machine seemed to say,

as I walked round and round the penny arcade

Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle

and youll make all those colored lights cascade

And music played at the penny arcade,

yes it played and it played, played all the time

Roll up and spend your last dime


Step up and play each machine seemed to say,

as I walked round and round the penny arcade

Just ring the bell on the big bagatelle

and youll make all those colored lights cascade

And music played at the penny arcade,

yes it played and it played, played all the time

Roll up and spend your last dime
