What you want is not what you've got
You can work 'til dawn but when will it stop?
You can take time off but never get caught
It's all part of the game

One good turn deserves another
And every dog has it's day
Can we make some more time for each other
I hope we don't have to pay
There's not time, no time to recover
This is no holiday

Chorus:

Tell me anything that you want
'Cause we all know that money talks
And we will do exactly what it says

We're here today, maybe gone tomorrow
You know there's no other way
It's all part of the game
Whether we, we beg, steal or borrow
We will do it today
It's all part of the game

Repeat Chorus:

What you want is not what you've got
You can work 'til dawn but when will it stop?
You can take time off but never get caught
It's all part of the game

As you make your way to the top
Don't let life tie you in a knot
We're all the same, no, probably not
It's all part of the game

Repeat Chorus
