Name Of The Game Lyrics - Straight Up - Badfinger

Saw the railway master 

And I looked him in the eye 

Said "Would you go much faster 

If you thought that you would die? 

He said "Not me sir I could not care 

In fact I would not try 

Protest would not take me far 

It's different me not being a star" 

I lock my feelings in a jar until another day 

Comfort me dear brother 

Won't you tell me what you know? 

Somewhere in this painful world 

Is a place where I can go

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

Oh long awaiting mother 

Is it time to make yout the show? 

And take your babies to your breast 

No we never passed the test 

And all our sins should be confessed before we carry on 

Oh don't refuse me 

If you choose me you'll follow my shame 

No don't confuse me 

For I know it's the name of the game 

Got up off my pillow 

And I looked up at the sun 

Said "You can see quite clearly now 

The things that we have done" 

We burned your sacred willow 

And our battles we have won 

But did we get so very far? 

It's different me not being a star 

Lock my feelings in a jar until we go away

Oh don't refuse me 

If you choose me you'll follow my shame 

No don't confuse me 

For I know it's the name of the game 

Oh don't refuse me 

If you choose me you'll follow my shame 

No don't confuse me 

For I know that's the name of the game 

Don't refuse me 

Don't confuse me 

Ohh ohh ohh 

Don't refuse me 

Don't confuse me 

Ohh ohh ohh
