Prophets talk about the end of the world
They say it’s gonna be soon
But every end that’s gonna get you down babe
Is gonna get me down too
We were born to lose

When I was a kid I thought the world looked so strange
From my point of view
I never thought there was anybody like me
But now I know it ain’t [bad word] We were born to lose
And some of us were born to play the blues

I met a girl that I could love all my life
She makes me feel so good
I try to tell her all the things that make her smile
To make her feel good too
But we were born to lose
We’re all gonna die now
