No one, no one gets the prize |
|
No one, no one |
|
No one gets the prize |
|
We were best of friends |
|
It all began |
|
He came in to town and changed the plan |
|
I knew she felt, the same as me |
|
Which one of us would it be |
|
Just in fun, fight begun |
|
Before long a web of hate was spun |
|
she pretended same as me |
|
Oh, but friends again we'd never be |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
She told him lies, and I told him lies |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
She schemed and dreamed and told him dirt |
|
That I was wrong for him |
|
I told him all the boys she'd hurt and I would number them |
|
He was the ray of light that made our hearts live |
|
But either one of us knew really how to give |
|
So we scandalized and criticized |
|
And then we learned how to despise |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
She told him lies and I lied, I lied yeah |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
No, no, no |
|
Yeah, yeah |
|
Back off |
|
Tried to steal him, tried to steal him |
|
Tried to steal him |
|
Runnin' behind my back |
|
Tried to steal him |
|
Tried to show him where it was at |
|
Watch it now |
|
No, no I won't take second place |
|
No, no tell him to his face |
|
We were friends for so, so, so long |
|
Messed around, now he's gone gone gone gone |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
No, no |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
I wasn't alive, a love that's satisfied |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
It wasn't fair, the love I couldn't share |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
No, no |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
No one, no one gets the prize |
|
She lied, I lied, we lied |
|
No one, no one |
