You may think it's all a game but you're wrong, you're wrong
We're all connected just the same
One big ol' throng
You may think you'll get away with telling all your lies
Well you are in, I bet, for one big surprise
You may think you are a god but you're not, you're not
You may think you are a have not some have-not
While the rest of us fools are chasing a buck
You look down your nose and say, "You suck"
Don't fool yourself, bucko
Don't live a lie
Don't fool yourself, bucko
Your time is nigh
When you get dealt a hand
It's always a full house, full house
You trip the light fantastique while the rest of us grouse
You may think you are above the lowly scum
But don't you worry about a thing
Your time will come
Hey buddy, better listen to what I say
The clock is ticking on your perfect day
You may think that you're right but what if your not
Take away your bravado and what have you got
You may think that you're so smart and we're all a bunch of fools
But in the end you may find the world will break your rules
