Lyrics
The Game Music and lyrics by Carson Henley and Tess Henley Verse #1: You got two jobs and a bitter boss Working to make ends meet You’ve got dead clocks and tattered socks That’s the least of your worries These days are long child These days are long You just busted another one sleeping in your bed You feel like the whole world is crumbling And that you’re in over your head You gotta be strong child You gotta be strong Chorus: It’s the only game bgv: Hey, Hey And the rules they change bgv: Hey, Hey, Hey So don’t spread the blame Cause that arrow you’ll aim Always hits one name Verse #2 You keep handouts and hand me downs Cause you take what you can get You know they gather the gossipers Just to laugh at your expense You gotta move on child You gotta move on. You are outcast and out of touch Cause they just won’t let you in You’ve been pounding that pavement Just to earn your due respect Your time will come child Your time will come. Chorus: It’s the only game bgv: Hey, Hey And the rules they change bgv: Hey, Hey, Hey So don’t spread the blame Cause that arrow you’ll aim Always hits one name Bridge: Take your time, Catch your breath, Do what you do, But don’t expect entitlement Ain’t nobody waiting for you Chorus: It’s the only game bgv: Hey, Hey And the rules they change bgv: Hey, Hey, Hey So don’t spread the blame Cause that arrow you’ll aim Always hits one name
