DIANA ROSS - No One Get's The Prize lyrics

rate me

(Nickolas Ashford/Valerie Simpson)

No one, no one gets the prize

No one, no one

No one gets the prize

We were best of friends

It all began

He came in to town and changed the plan

I knew she felt, the same as me

Which one of us would it be

Just in fun, fight begun

Before long a web of hate was spun

she pretended same as me

Oh, but friends again we'd never be

No one, no one gets the prize

She told him lies, and I told him lies

No one, no one gets the prize

She schemed and dreamed and told him dirt

That I was wrong for him

I told him all the boys she'd hurt and I would number them

He was the ray of light that made our hearts live

But either one of us knew really how to give

So we scandalized and criticized

And then we learned how to despise

No one, no one gets the prize

She told him lies and I lied, I lied yeah

No one, no one gets the prize

No, no, no

Yeah, yeah

Back off

Tried to steal him, tried to steal him

Tried to steal him

Runnin' behind my back

Tried to steal him

Tried to show him where it was at

Watch it now

No, no I won't take second place

No, no tell him to his face

We were friends for so, so, so long

Messed around, now he's gone gone gone gone

No one, no one gets the prize

No, no

No one, no one gets the prize

I wasn't alive, a love that's satisfied

No one, no one gets the prize

It wasn't fair, the love I couldn't share

No one, no one gets the prize

No, no

No one, no one gets the prize

No one, no one gets the prize

She lied, I lied, we lied

No one, no one
