The Wiz, Starring Michael Jackson, Diana Ross and others

u can't win
u can't break even
And u can't get out of the game
People kee sayin'
Things are gonna change
But they look us like
You're stayin' the same

u can't win
Get over your head
And u only have yourself to blame
u can't win chile
(you can't win chile)
u ain't break even
And u can't get out of the game

u can't win
The world keeps movin'
And you're standin' far behind
People keep sayin'
Things'll get better
(just to ease your state of mind)
(so u lean back, and u smoke that smoke)
(and u drink your glass of wine)
So u can't win, chile
u can't break even
And u can't get out of the game

u can't win, u can't win no way
If your story stays the same
(you ain't winnin'),
No, no,
(but it's nice to see you)
[You Can't Win lyrics on link

(I'm awfully glad u came)
(better cool it 'cause
It ain't abour losin')
Then the world has got no shame
u can't win, chile
u can't break even
u can't get out of the game

u can't win
u can't break even
Ain't the way it's supposed to be
(you'll be spendin'),
No, no
(your little bit of money)
While someone else rides for free
(learn your lesson), ooh,
(refuel your mind)
(before someone blows out your flame)

u can't win, chile. no!
u can't win
u can't win, chile. no!
u can't win
u can't win, chile. no!
u can't win
u can't win, chile. no!
u can't win

u can't win, chile
u can't break even
And u can't get out of the game
u can't get out of the game
u can't get out (ugh!) of the game
No, no...
