If You Can't Beat Them

Keep your chin up when you’re feeling lonely
Don’t let 'em get you down
Ain’t no use in you sitting all alone
Hanging around
For someone to call
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 yeah
If you can’t beat them join 'em
You’d better do it cos it makes you feel good
If you can’t beat 'em join 'em
You’re never gonna help yourself
Come on go, get up, hey
Sure feels good
Keep your big hands 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
And bind me to your legal contract
Rumour has it that you can play it dirty
I’ll tell you what I’ll do about that, that yeah
I’ll play you at your own game
If you can’t beat them join them
You’d better do it cos it makes you feel good
If you can’t beat 'em join 'em
You’re never gonna help yourself yeah
That’s good
Play it again
If you can’t beat 'em join them
You’d better do it cos it makes you feel good
If you can’t beat 'em join 'em
It’s everyone for themselves
