The Skin Game Lyrics - Janet Jackson

Oh 

See you, you in there dancin', 

And I'm in here needing questions and answers 

(ha!, ha!), hey!, (ha!, ha!) 

Ha!, hoo!, ha!, hoo!, ha!, hoo!, ha! 

The dance is in 

When they're mine 

Try to learn the rules 

Don't mind showin' 

Equal chances (taught) 

For our amuses 

Not much can beat the odds 

No excuses, let's play the skin game 

(ha!, ha!, ha!), hoo!, (ha!, ha!, ha!), ooh!,(ha!, ha!) 

Sing it!, ha!, hoo!, ha!, (sing it!), sing it!, ha!, hoo!, (your choice), ha!

You say your set 

So let's get started 

Try to be the best 

But don't be that smart 

You know what your brother gets 

No need to complain 

Just figure out, that there's a way to play, 

To play the skin game 

Chorus: 

The skin game is still around, sing it!, 

But you can't keep a good man down 

(play the skin game) 

(ha!, ha!, ha!), hoo!, ha!, (ha!, ha!), hoo!, (ha!, ha!) ha!, ( ha!), hoo! 

Repeat chorus 

Can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't 

Keep a good man down 

And I'm in here needing questions and answers 

(ha!) 

Hoo! 

Repeat chorus 

(and I'm in here needing questions and answers) 

Outside lookin' in, in, in 

The door is open, but you can't get in 

Something's in the way 

It's a skin game (oh, just a skin game) 

Just a skin game 

Let's play the skin game (game) 

Hoo!, hoo! 

(sing it for the people y'all) 

Repeat chorus 

The skin game is still around, sing it!, 

But you can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't, can't 

Keep a good man down, 

Can't, can't, can't, can't, sing it!, can't, can't, can't, can't, sing it! 

Repeat chorus 

Hoo! 

Break it down, sing it! 

Hoo! 

Sing it! 

(sing it for the people y'all) 

Sing it! 

(sing it!, sing it!, sing it, sing it again!) 

(sing it again, sing it again, and again, and again, and again, and again) 

Repeat chorus 

The skin game is still around 

See you in there dancin', 

And I'm in here needing questions and answers
