Michael Jackson - You Can't Win
You can't win
You can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
People keep sayin'
Things are gonna change
But they look just like
You're stayin' the same
You get in
Way over your head
And you only got yourself to blame
But you can't win child
You can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't win
The world keeps movin'
And you're standin' far behind
People keep sayin'
Things will get better
(Just to ease your state of mind)
(So you lean back, and you smoke that smoke)
(And you drink your glass of wine)
But you can't win, child
You can't break even
(And you can't get out of the game) You can't win
You can't win, no way
If your story stays the same
(You ain't winnin')
No, no
(But it's nice to see you)
(I'm awfully glad you came)
(Better cool it )
('Cause it ain't about losin')
And the world has got no shame
You can't win, child
You can't break even
You can't get out of the game
You can't win
You can't break even
Ain't the way it's supposed to be
(You'll be spendin')
No, no
(Your little bit of money)
While someone else rides for free
(Learn your lesson), ooh
(Refuel your mind)
(Before some turkey blows out your flame)
So you can't win, child, no!
You can't win child, no!
You can't win child, no!
You can't win child, no!
You can't win child, no!
You can't get out of the game
You can't get out of the game
You can't get out
You can't get out of the game
You can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
People keep sayin'
Things are gonna change
But they look just like
You're stayin' the same
You get in
Way over your head
And you only got yourself to blame
But you can't win child
You can't break even
And you can't get out of the game
You can't win
The world keeps movin'
And you're standin' far behind
People keep sayin'
Things will get better
(Just to ease your state of mind)
(So you lean back, and you smoke that smoke)
(And you drink your glass of wine)
But you can't win, child
You can't break even
(And you can't get out of the game) You can't win
You can't win, no way
If your story stays the same
(You ain't winnin')
No, no
(But it's nice to see you)
(I'm awfully glad you came)
(Better cool it )
('Cause it ain't about losin')
And the world has got no shame
You can't win, child
You can't break even
You can't get out of the game
You can't win
You can't break even
Ain't the way it's supposed to be

No, no

So you can't win, child, no!
You can't win child, no!
You can't win child, no!
You can't win child, no!
You can't win child, no!
You can't get out of the game
You can't get out of the game
You can't get out
You can't get out of the game
