lyrics

Down in the dirt
with bruises on my shins
I kept my shirt
with everyone skins
kickin the ball and
kickin me and
kickin back
and winning

Well I got tired of going to games
and who is king, who is slave
I made up my mind
I changed my mission
I found a way to sabotage the competition
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
Yeah, Yeah! And you can kick my ass!
I cheat to lose!

Hey, I didn't mean to spoil your fun
well maybe I did
but anyway I wasn't hurting anyone
was I?
Doesn't it suck to beat a guy who isn't trying?
Like that painting of the fish
that turns to frogs and keeps flying?

And who is right
and who's to blame
who got riches
who got fame
you can stick it all
I won't keep score
Yeah I'm not playing your way anymore
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
Yeah, Yeah!
I'm gonnna knock myself right out!
I cheat to lose!

Yeah, Yeah! Yeah, Yeah!
Yeah, Yeah! Yeah, Yeah!
There's a party at my house
and you're all invited
yeah, yeah, don't act so excited
there'll be full-contact Croquet and Bridge
Worship The Nerd, and Steal The Fridge
Ringelivio and Capture the Flag
Kung Fu Dodgeball, Winkum in drag
Queen Of The Hill, and Serf Of The Pool,
you know there's only gonna be one rule
and that's Cheat to Lose! yeah...yeah...yeah!
that's cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
that's cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
Yeah, Yeah!
I'm gonn hit the ball and run to third! Whoo!
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
I cheat to lose... yeah...yeah...yeah!
Yeah, Yeah.

Down in the dirt
with bruises on my shins
I kept my shirt
with everyone skins.
