Song lyrics
Falling asleep at the wheel again baby 
You're drifting over the line, yeah 
Your hands are tied but you're losing grip quickly 
Fix me, can you read the signs? 

Thumbing your way to Vegas, dirty 
And dreaming of the other side 
Save your tears and laughter 
Because it doesn't matter what you find 

It ain't pretty 
After the show 
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you 
With no place to go 
If you think you need it 
Here's the place to feed it *Here's the place to beat it*
But it ain't pretty 

When everything that you do is wrong 
And you feel like you can barely survive yeah 
When those around you are crumbling downwards 
Buried in the sunset alive 

Thumbing your way to Vegas, dirty 
And screaming like you're back from hell 
Save your dreams and occupations 
Coz it doesn't matter what you sell 

It ain't pretty 
After the show 
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you 
With no place to go 
If you think you want it 
Here's the place to get it 
But it ain't pretty 

The party's over and the road is long 
The party's over and you're moving on 
The party's over and the road is long 

If you think you want it 
Just come out and say it 
It aint pretty 

Falling asleep at the wheel again baby 
You're drifting over the line, line
You're hands are tied but you're losing grip quickly 
Fix me, can you read the signs 

Thumbing your way to Vegas, dirty 
And dreaming like you're outta control *And dreaming like you're out of control*
Save your tears and laughter 
Because this is the ride 
And this is the show 

It ain't pretty 
After the show 
It ain't pretty when the pretty leaves you 
With no place to go 
If you think you want it 
Just come in and get it 
It ain't pretty

Not bad x3 I have heard that the JD guy couldn't sing (I only watched rockstar INXS twice) but I think this song is pretty good. I approve (and god knows they need my approval).

you guys probably have no idea about the real INXS, when they were Australian, no one can replace the original singer, Michael Hutchence who you probably have never heard of. have you heard of any of INXS' good songs? Such as Don't Change, Need You Tonight and Never Tear us Apart? i doubt it.

Though this is an ok song, the new guy can never be as good as Michael, who was my uncle before he died. Their new album Switch which has this song on it will never do as well as the KICK album

I have been a fan of INXS since their first single "The One Thing" hit big in the US.

I recently saw the band on TV and heard them say in an interview that so far since the single "Pretty Vegas" has been out that it has sold more copies than any other INXS song to date. Is this true? does anybody know?

I hope thier new album does well. It's about time they had another hit in the States.

Good Luck.

The album version of 'Pretty Vegas' shows that the INXS boys have been doing a LOT of work with their 'smarmy imitator'. His vocals have cleaned up. He can now enunciate, and his phrasing is dramatically better!
I was thrilled to see on the INXS official website that credit for the lyrics is also given to Marty Casey and Jordis Unga... not just JD Fortune.
Besides, Marty and the Lovehammers have a new albumn coming out as well! Rock on Marty!!!

I absolutely love this song. I loved INXS with Michael, but they're not all bad with JD either. The rest of the album is a bit disappointing though. Hopefully their next release will be better, after they've had more of a chance to get to know each other etc.

I'm not sure if Pretty Vegas actually has sold more copies than any other INXS song, but I wouldn't be surprised at all if it was true. The song's being sold on the hype from the show.
