Nobody promised you it would be easy Not even fair But lot of people said Lean on me And they weren't there If it's any consolation We're all the same And if you lose your head You lose the game And it's all an uphill run You know it ain't much fun You know we're all the same Turn you round again, again Everyone said Come over here and be like me I didn't want to know Ain't no place to be If it's any consolation You're all the same But it's a different face With a different name But it's all an uphill run You know it ain't much fun You know you're just the same Caught up in the game again I'm gonna tell you something You must believe I've got a hat full of jokes Waiting up my sleeve Forget cancellation, I know the game It's a different face But the name's the same And it's all an uphill run You know it ain't much fun You know we're all the same And I'll turn you round again, again
