Razor Lyrics

Prove to be the best game of the year.
Hello everyone, I'm johnny bigmouth, welcoming you to
The final game of the world championship.
We're expecting to see one helluva game tonight,
There's no love lost between these two teams.
Each drawing endless amounts of penalties:
So now, we take you live and play... the game".
You gave it your all, you gave all you've got
You reached for the limit, you pushed till you dropped
You scratched and you clawed, you spilled out your guts
You gave them your oath and you signed it in blood
Bent over backwards, your body is sore
You gave them your life but they still wanted more
You carry the load, you dig deep inside
Blood, sweat and tears till the day that you die
The game... betrayed
This is how you get repaid
They're playing with your mind, they're playing with your head
How do you like your meal when you're being force fed
This is how you get repaid... the game
You crash and you burn, you've stood at the top
You faced all the pressure and took the cheap shots
Your body keeps dying, wealth is the gain
You fought all the battles and played through the pain
You scratch at the scabs, you swear when you bleed
You laughed at the stitches and lost your front teeth
Go through the therapy, break all your bones
Then comes the trade, you buy/sell your home
"Oh my... what a hit! did you see that? unbelievable...
That's gotta hurt. The abuse this boy takes night after night,
And he's still putting on quite a show for the fans.
This guy is worth every penny he makes... I tell ya... that's gotta hurt..."
You talk of the glories and memories gone past
A brilliant career though it could never last
You're down and you're bitter, your rings are in hock
There's pins in your knees and you limp when you walk
You take all the pills, make the pain go away
You've lost all your wealth but your agent's ok
Your children have left you, your wife did the same
Look what it got you, but man he could sure play the game
The lyrics of Razor's song The Game tell the story of a professional athlete who has given his all to the game but is betrayed and repaid with abuse, injury and ultimately, loss. The opening lines are that of a play-by-play announcer for a world championship game, building up the excitement and anticipation of the audience. However, the focus shifts to the player, who has pushed himself to his limits, sacrificing everything for the game. The lyrics explore the concept of the physical and emotional toll of professional sports โ the injuries, the pain, the pressure, the trade-offs that players have to make.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the feeling of betrayal that the player is experiencing. Despite giving his all, he is still being forced into a situation that he cannot control. The lyrics talk about playing through pain, losing teeth, and broken bones, all in the pursuit of success. However, in the end, the player is left with nothing, bitter and alone. The song is a commentary on the glory and the cost of professional sports, where winning is everything, even if it comes at the expense of the players.

We expect a great game tonight with no love between the teams, many penalties, fights, cheap shots and everything you could ask for. Let's start the game.
You gave it your all, you gave all you've got
You reached for the limit, you pushed till you dropped
You scratched and you clawed, you spilled out your guts
You gave them your oath and you signed it in blood
Bent over backwards, your body is sore
You gave them your life but they still wanted more
You carry the load, you dig deep inside
Blood, sweat and tears till the day that you die
The game... betrayed
This is how you get repaid
They're playing with your mind, they're playing with your head
How do you like your meal when you're being force fed
This is how you get repaid... the game
You gave your best, pushed yourself to the limit and gave everything you had. You committed yourself to the game, even signed your oath in blood. You worked tirelessly and played through injuries. Despite it all, the game betrayed you. You were left feeling manipulated and forced to take more when you had nothing left to give.
You crash and you burn, you've stood at the top
You faced all the pressure and took the cheap shots
Your body keeps dying, wealth is the gain
You fought all the battles and played through the pain
You scratch at the scabs, you swear when you bleed
You laughed at the stitches and lost your front teeth
Go through the therapy, break all your bones
Then comes the trade, you buy/sell your home
You succeed and face the pressure that comes with it, even taking cheap shots from opponents. The result, however, is a damaged and failing body, while the players, owners and agents profit financially. You fought all the battles and played through the pain, sometimes disregarding your own health and safety. You went through intense physical therapy and endured injuries, sometimes even laughing through the stitches and losing teeth. You even had to sell your home when the trade came.
"Oh my... what a hit! did you see that? unbelievable...
That's gotta hurt. The abuse this boy takes night after night,
And he's still putting on quite a show for the fans.
This guy is worth every penny he makes... I tell ya... that's gotta hurt..."
People watch the game, amazed and entertained by the hard hits and grueling nature of it all, even though it takes a major toll on the players' bodies. The players continue to play through the pain, putting on a show for the fans and earning the money they are paid, despite the physical and emotional toll it takes on them.
You talk of the glories and memories gone past
A brilliant career though it could never last
You're down and you're bitter, your rings are in hock
There's pins in your knees and you limp when you walk
You take all the pills, make the pain go away
You've lost all your wealth but your agent's ok
Your children have left you, your wife did the same
Look what it got you, but man he could sure play the game
You reflect on the great moments of your past career despite it being short-lived. You are now bitter and broke, selling off your championship rings. Your body is falling apart, with pins in your knees and a noticeable limp. You take pills to numb the pain, but you have lost all your wealth while your agent made out well. You've lost your family and everything you had, all for a game you know you could play well.
