Loser

(album: Phoenix Wright The Musical: The Turnabout Encounter - 2017)

[Payne:]
Oh... if it isn't Phoenix Wright...
That's a lot to drink right before a trial
[Phoenix:]
Let me die in peace, Winston
[Payne:]
[Laughs] losing a case sucks, doesn't it?
[Phoenix:]
You would know...
[Payne:]
Better than most
And I also know a loser when I see one...
Welcome to my world, Wright!

[Payne:]
You think you're different; you do nothing but win, but I know you're really a sham
You think you've got a special aura within you, but now you've found out you're a scam
You think you're still the sharpest tool in the shed and believe me, I did too
But now I'm a loser and so are you!

[Phoenix:]
Oh, hey! Look at the time!
It's half past "Shut Your Face and Leave Me Alone!"
[Payne laughs]
[Phoenix:]
Pacific Daylight Time
[Payne:]
Oh!

[Payne:]
For years you still believed that no one could touch you, but you then got poked in the eye
The ace attorney turned to chump and a fool who continued to doubt and deny
He's all washed up and all his luck has run out, he's a has been through and through...
Because he's a loser
[Phoenix:]
And so are you!
[Payne:]
I'll drink to that!

[Payne:]
You're just a part of the trend
And for a loser, losing, don't end!
No one to turn to!
Everyone spurns you!
Till you've no friends!
But just for fun let's both pretend that...

You were a lawyer full of talent and promise, but you finally choked and bit the dust
And let's assume you once were valiant and honest, but still your career was a bust!
You beat me every time we met in the court yet my wildest dreams came true...
'Cause though I'm a loser
Now so are you...

[Phoenix:]
That's it!
In order to win this case...
[Payne laughs]
I have to think like a loser!
I gotta call Miles!
Thanks for the help, Winston!

[Payne:]
Uh... yeah... anything for a pal!
