Pretenders

Pretenders - The Losing lyrics

If it's games you want I've played a few

Let me say up front I'll lose to you

I can see you're a beginner

Well beginner's luck runs out

You think you're a winner

But let me tell ya

The winning's not what it's all about

You see, it's about the losing

Can't rest until I'm losing

At first you feel hungry

Then you're thirsty too

Then a desperate feeling comes over you

You think you can beat

What no one has before

Then you start to cheat

Before you know it

You're back for more

You see it's about the losing

Can't stop when I'm at the top

It's about the losing

Every time I win I have to start again

Can't rest, rest until I'm losing

A bluff's about as good as the getting will get

You see in this neighborhood

We're all in debt

A little more money

A little more fame

Who amongst us, if anybody

Wouldn't risk it all

To stay in the game

You see it's about the losing

Can't stop when I'm at the top

It's about the losing

Every time I win I have to start again

Can't rest, rest until I'm losing

Can't rest, rest until I'm losing

Can't rest, rest until I'm losing

It's about the losing

It's about the losing

It's about the losing
