Alexander Gemignani - The Game (Reprise) lyrics

(Thunder rumbles.) [ADDISON, spoken] Tell you what. If I decide to build a who*ehouse or a saloon, I'll call you. Until then- [WILSON, spoken] Listen... (sung) One day up, the next day down That's the way it goes One week you can own the town Next week, hey, who knows? You and me, though, Brother mine We're pros The whole thing's nothing more than just a game And what we both are good at is the game Believe me, I'm not asking for forgiveness All the same I'm asking to get back into the game Given up booze, given up coke Given up girls, don't even smoke Got a bad break and wound up broke Jesus, my life is one sad joke... (Pause. Addison just stares at him.) Want me to beg? Want me to crawl? Want an apology? Your call I was a prick, but after all Jesus, I'm your brother! (Another pause. Wilson sings with increasing desperation:) It's more than just the money that's at stake It's even more than begging for a break Joke or not, it's my life! If you want to twist the knife Then twist the knife... Only please-! (Wilson tilts forward and collapses. Thunder rumbles.) [ADDISON, spoken] It won't work, Willie... Up and at 'em! ...Willie? (Wilson doesn't move.) sh**! (Thunder rumbles.)
