White powder

knowing you
is letting you down, 'cause
you don't wear a crown

I always go for the first price
and that's no lie, if I reach that
I'll lift you beside me

don't make waves it's just
how the game is played
I'll be a king, you a queen
we will cover the whole scene

from New York to Abilene
the white powder is a test
if you're strong enough to
take the rest

it's not addictive as they say
more like a game, a game to
get used to

yes, king and queen we are
we reign, we play with the
white powder game

it's not addictive, not at all
just you play that's all, and
to play, you must pay afterall

like any game you play
the stakes are high, so are
the costs, stay with it you can't
kick it

it's not addictive so they say
going to the edge is a long stretch
stay with it babe, don't give up
the chase

go all the way to paradise
stay with it babe and you'll
be allright

allright 'till daylight
stay with it babe, stay
with the chase

Winning

it's not like me to lose
I'm a natural winner
in ev'ry game
I know
how it's played
I know how it's done
you'll never have me
on the run
I mastered ev'ry trick
leavin' me the kick
of beatin' you
at ev'ry bit

I have
a ferocious appetite
it never is enough
I'l go into the depths
of my thoughts
spend all my resources
to win that last resort
a natural winner I am
something I will always be
it's a feelin' in me

a loser doesn't win
a loser has nothing
a loser only plays
and loses again

losing is a trade
losing is a skill
losing is a thrill
losing is a craft
learning ev'ry game
memorising ev'ry word

not for me
I am a natural winner
a thing anybody can see
winning is a habit to me
