Playing the Game lyrics

[Instrumental Intro 00:00–00:47]

[Verse 1: Derek Shulman]
As I hold the key to the back door of the world
I feel my hand touching bounds never had before
I can view the power of my position
And my eyes can see more than anyone in any place
I'll play the game and never ever lose

[Instrumental Break 01:10–01:58]

[Verse 2: Derek Shulman]
I'm the king in fighting competition
And the other pieces are there for my art and my tactics now
All my games are won before they're played
For I have planned that no opposition can stage a fight
I'll play the game and never ever lose

[Instrumental Break 02:20–03:03]

[Bridge: Kerry Minnear]
My thoughts never spoken only the visions inside my head
The truth never broken within my silent words left unsaid

[Instrumental Break 03:16–05:00]
[Keyboard Solo]
[Verse 3: Derek Shulman]
I will steer the helm of all the nation
As the captain take my rewards for all the good I'm doing now
No words that I'm the knave can alter my philosophy
For if any are heard, the games started again I'll never ever lose

[Instrumental Outro]
