[Janet Jackson - The Skin Game lyrics]
See you, you in there dancin'
And I'm in here needin' questions answered
Contestants enter without knowin'
Try to learn the rules no one's showing
Equal chances (What?) no one loses
Not much can beat the odds no excuses
Let's play the skin game
(Skin game, Skin game)
The stage is set so let's get started
Try to be the best but don't be outsmarted
You know what you're up against
No need to complain try to figure out
The best way to play to play the skin game
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
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 needin' questions answered)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(And I'm here needin' questions answered)
Outside looking 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
(Sing it for the people, y'all)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But, you can't, can't can't can't (skin game)
Can't can't can't keep a good man down
(Skin game)
Can't, can't can't can't (Skin game)
Can't, can't can't can't (Skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Skin game) the skin game is still around
(Playin' the skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Break it down)
(Skin game, Sing it for the people y'all)
(Skin game)
(Sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it again)
The skin game is still around
(Sing it again, Playin' the skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (Skin game)
(See you, you in there dancin')
(And I'm in here needin' questions answered)
But, you can't keep a good man down
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around
