The Wiz movie - You Can't Win lyrics

rate me

<br>

(Sung by Michael Jackson)<br>

<br>

You can't win<br>

You can't break even<br>

And you can't get out of the game<br>

People keep sayin'<br>

Things are gonna change<br>

But they look just like they're staying the same<br>

You get in<br>

Way over your head<br>

And you've only got yourself to blame<br>

<br>

You can't win, chile<br>

You can't break even<br>

And you can't get out of the game<br>

<br>

You can't win<br>

The world keeps movin'<br>

And you're standin' far behind<br>

People keep sayin'<br>

Things 'll get better<br>

Just to ease your state of mind<br>

So you lay back<br>

And you smoke that smoke<br>

And you drink your glass of wine<br>

<br>

You can't win, chile<br>

You can't break even<br>

And you can't get out of the game<br>

<br>

You can't win<br>

You can't win<br>

No way if your story stays the same<br>

You ain't winnin'<br>

But it's nice to see you<br>

I'm awfully glad you came<br>

Better cool it<br>

'Cause it ain't about losin'<br>

Then the world has got no shame<br>

<br>

You can't win, chile<br>

You can't break even<br>

And you can't get out of the game<br>

<br>

You can't win<br>

You can't win<br>

You can't break even<br>

Ain't the way<br>

It's supposed to be<br>

You'll be spendin'<br>

Your little bit of money<br>

While someone else ride free<br>

Learn your lesson, refuel your mind<br>

Before some turkey blows out your flame<br>

<br>
