Game Over
Robert Rodriguez Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Game over
There are no rules in this game
Except win at any costs

The time has come
Once and for all
You′ve met your match
You will fall

This little game we play
Is gonna break us down
Only one of us can wear the crown

It's not as easy as you thought it′d be
When it's down to you vs. me

I'll play ya rough,
I don′t need to try
You′d like to play me
But the score never lies

Game over
Game over
Game over
For now...

When in the games
The only rule allowed
No mother love or
Cheers from the crowd

Wen the game began
You never thought you'd lose
But your time is up
I′ll play the rules

Ya look around and find
You've lost your team
You tried your best
But you ran out of steam

I′ll play ya rough
I don't need to try
You′d like to play me
But the score never lies

You're all out of wishes
Case your dreams
Collide and ends the same

It's not whether
You win or lose
It′s how you play the game

Game over
Game over
Game over
For now...

Is that all you got?
Come on!
Uh-huh?
Bring it on!

Game over
Game over
Game over
For now...

Robo arena and mega racer were my favourite themes as a kid.

@azurekate_

@rooneyfan6292

awsome :) where are the rest

@firethehedgehog2909

i like that movie but yeah Whats is mega race?

@JustAnotherZ00mer

I think you mean Mega Racer, and it's where the characters race to the final and see who wins, apparently The Guy was Juni because he won. It's just a regular race with really outstanding sci-fi vehicles.

@suciyantharyputri1946

00:48 reminded me of when Wonder Woman enters the scene in Batman v Superman

@Ryakkusu
