[Verse 1] Keep your chin up when you're feeling lonely Don't let them get you down Isn't no use in sitting all alone Hanging around for someone to call Oh they won't come knocking at all Don't run and hide even if it hurts you inside So I said give as good as you get [Chorus] If you can't beat them join them You better do it because it makes you feel good If you can't beat them join them You're never going to help yourself [Verse 2] Keep your fingers off my money Don't try and pull me down You're taking me out to wine and dine me
Trying to wind me round and around Invite me to your little contract Ha! Ha! Rumor has it that you could play dirty I tell you what I'll do about that I'm playing at the wrong game yeah! [Chorus] If you can't beat them join them You better do it because it makes you feel good If you can't beat them join them You're never going to help yourself [Chorus] If you can't beat them join them You've got to do it because it makes you feel good If you can't beat them join them It's everyone for themselves
