The Skin Game (Letra)

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

You’re welcome to fame
You’re welcome to try
I’ve been on tv, sold my face to you

You’re welcome to love
You’re welcome to me
I burned my dream, sold my heart, nobody knew

Listen children
I’ve seen my future
Call it the deadline for now
I’ve heard secrets
I’ve heard excuses
I’ve heard a voice in the dark

You’re waiting for me
You’ve made a mistake
I’ll give you nothing but lies, or nothing at all

I’m playing a game
I’m playing with you
I call it shameful, ‘the skin game,’ don’t you?
You’re playing it cold
(ripping it up)
You’re playing for time
(i don’t like pictures)
You’re breaking my rules and i won’t let you go

I’m looking for you
(welcome to me)
Somebody screamed
(it’s no use talking)
I’ve connections with god. what do you need?

Lost in junk sick
No sleep no motion
She said ‘he’s nothing to lose’
Love sick? skin game
Welcome to romance
She’s like the heart of the world

I’m still breathing
Welcome to my house
I’d steal from god, wouldn’t you?
One more question
Am i in danger?
Rumours. and i’ve got the fear

Looking for you
Is it any wonder?
Tearing it up
Living on empty

Oh

See you, you in there dancin’,

And i’m in here needing questions and answers

(ha!, ha!), hey!, (ha!, ha!)

Ha!, hoo!, ha!, hoo!, ha!, hoo!, ha!

The dance is in

When they’re mine

Try to learn the rules

Don’t mind showin’

Equal chances (taught)

For our amuses

Not much can beat the odds

No excuses, let’s play the skin game

(ha!, ha!, ha!), hoo!, (ha!, ha!, ha!), ooh!,(ha!, ha!)

Sing it!, ha!, hoo!, ha!, (sing it!), sing it!, ha!, hoo!, (your choice), ha!

You say your set

So let’s get started

Try to be the best

But don’t be that smart

You know what your brother gets

No need to complain

Just figure out, that there’s a way to play,

To play the skin game

Chorus:

The skin game is still around, sing it!,

But you can’t keep a good man down

(play the skin game)

(ha!, ha!, ha!), hoo!, ha!, (ha!, ha!), hoo!, (ha!, ha!) ha!, ( ha!), hoo!

Repeat chorus

Can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t

Keep a good man down

And i’m in here needing questions and answers

(ha!)

Hoo!

Repeat chorus

(and i’m in here needing questions and answers)

Outside lookin’ in, in, in

The door is open, but you can’t get in

Something’s in the way

It’s a skin game (oh, just a skin game)

Just a skin game

Let’s play the skin game (game)

Hoo!, hoo!

(sing it for the people ya’ll)

Repeat chorus

The skin game is still around, sing it!,

But you can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t

Keep a good man down,

Can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, sing it!, can’t, can’t, can’t, can’t, sing it!

Repeat chorus

Hoo!

Break it down, sing it!

Hoo!

Sing it!

(sing it for the people ya’ll)

Sing it!

(sing it!, sing it!, sing it, sing it again!)

(sing it again, sing it again, and again, and again, and again, and again)

Repeat chorus

The skin game is still around

See you in there dancin’,

And i’m in here needing questions and answers
