You win a few
You lose a few
Then you win a few more
Always try to score
Keep yourself off the floor
It’s a loser’s game
It has no name
Anyone can play
Just simple rules
Followed by fools
Saying what they have to say
I tried my best
To leave the rest
A ticket away from here
The more I tried
The more I lied
It all seems very queer
You win a few
You lose a few
Then you win a few more
Always try to score
Keep yourself off the floor
Heaven knows
I took the blows
As I tried to run
My brain obeyed
As my body died
I knew then I was done
I saw a light
Deep in the night
I groped I tried to reach it
The pain grew worse
My body cursed
The days that I was fit
You win a few
You lose a few
Then you win a few more
Always try to score
Keep yourself off the floor
