Razor - The Game lyrics

"Good evening sports fans and welcome to what should

prove to be the best game of the year.

Hello everyone, I'm johnny bigmouth, welcoming you to

the final game of the world championship.

We're expecting to see one helluva game tonight,

There's no love lost between these two teams.

Each drawing endless amounts of penalties:

We've had fights, cheap shots, name calling - everything we could ask for...

So now, we take you live and play... the game".

You gave it your all, you gave all you've got

You reached for the limit, you pushed till you dropped

You scratched and you clawed, you spilled out your guts

You gave them your oath and you signed it in blood

Bent over backwards, your body is sore

You gave them your life but they still wanted more

You carry the load, you dig deep inside

Blood, sweat and tears till the day that you die

The game... betrayed

This is how you get repaid

They're playing with your mind, they're playing with your head

How do you like your meal when you're being force fed

This is how you get repaid... the game

You crash and you burn, you've stood at the top

You faced all the pressure and took the cheap shots

Your body keeps dying, wealth is the gain

You fought all the battles and played through the pain

You scratch at the scabs, you swear when you bleed

You laughed at the stitches and lost your front teeth

Go through the therapy, break all your bones

Then comes the trade, you buy/sell your home

"Oh my... what a hit! did you see that? unbelievable...

That's gotta hurt. The abuse this boy takes night after night,

and he's still putting on quite a show for the fans.

This guy is worth every penny he makes... I tell ya... that's gotta hurt..."

You talk of the glories and memories gone past

A brilliant career though it could never last

You're down and you're bitter, your rings are in hock

There's pins in your knees and you limp when you walk

You take all the pills, make the pain go away

You've lost all your wealth but your agent's ok

Your children have left you, your wife did the same

Look what it got you, but man he could sure play the game
