The endless years and hardluck tales, and some that have just moved on, 
I guess it could be envy when I wonder what's gone wrong 
Fingers point at all the problems, but that won't change my mind 
I must have been held back in hardknox school a few more times 

few more years, a few more tears, are we the losers in the game? 
When time is done and [bad word]  we'll not be losers in the game! 

No one ever said it's easy to watch the world go by 
Console myself by trying and trying, and trying just one more time 
Put on a smile and fake your way in through another door 
But only if you have more luck than a thousand times before 

few more years, a few more tears, are we the losers in the game? 
When time is done and [bad word]  we'll not be losers in the game! 

Try again, change direction, spend more money, new horizons, what's it gonna be? 
Take your hits, I hate my job, live like who, think like what, no thanks I'll just stay me

few more years, a few more tears, are we the losers in the game? 
When time is done and [bad word]  we'll not be losers in the game!
