The Winner Loses

(álbum: Body Count - 1992)

My friend's addicted to cocaine
Smokes day and night
Drives mom and pop insane.
Living his life in the dark light
Every dollar he gets goes into the pipe.

He wants to borrow some money from me
Do you think I'm blind
Don't know the score
Can't see?

You wanna get high as the sky
(you're kissing your life goodbye) you're kissing your life goodbye
(you think it's a game) you think it's a game that you play
(but the winners lose) but the winners lose it all someday.

Ya don't know who you are
Are you losing your mind?
Things get a little tight he committed a crime.
Give me your money or give me your life!
You better empty your pockets because ya,
Ya don't live twice.

You wanna get high as the sky
(you're kissing your life goodbye) you're kissing your life goodbye
(you think it's a game) you think it's a game that you play
(but the winners lose) but the winners lose it all someday.

He took the money to the dope man
And he said he had the best
Next thing ya knew, cardiac arrest!
It was a rollercoaster, he couldn't get off
Next thing I knew my friends' life was lost. nooooooooo.

You think it's a game, you think it's a game,
You think it's a game, you think it's a game,
You think it's a game, you think it's a game,

You think it's a game, you think it's a game,
You think it's a game, you think it's a game,
You think it's a game, you think it's a game,

You think it's a game, you think it's a game,
You think it's a game, you think it's a game,
You think it's a game, you think it's a game,

You think it's a game, you think it's a game,
You think it's a game, you think it's a game,
You think it's a game, you think it's a game,

You wanna get high as the sky
(you're kissing your life goodbye) you're kissing your life goodbye
(you think it's a game) you think it's a game that you play
(but the winners lose) but the winners lose it all someday.

You wanna get high as the sky
(you're kissing your life goodbye) you're kissing your life goodbye
(you think it's a game) you think it's a game that you play
(but the winners lose) but the winners lose it all someday.

You wanna get high as the sky
(you're kissing your life goodbye) you're kissing your life goodbye
(you think it's a game) you think it's a game that you play
(but the winners lose) but the winners lose it all someday.

You wanna get high as the sky.
