Letra de la canción
Keep your chin up when you're feeling lonely
Don't let them get you down
Ain't no use in your sitting all alone
Hanging around for someone to call
Oooh they won't come knocking at all
Don't run and hide
Even if it hurts you inside
So I said
Give as good as you get
If you can't beat them, join them
You'd better do it
Because it makes you feel good
If you can't beat them, join them
You're never gonna help yourself
Come on
Get up
You're feeling good
Keep your fingers off my money
Don't try and pull me down
You're taking me out to wine and dine me
Trying to wind me round and around
Invite me to your little contract Ha! Ha!
Rumour has it that you could play dirty
I'll tell you what I'll do about that
I'm playing at the wrong game yeah!
If you can't beat them, join them
You'd better do it
Because it makes you feel good
If you can't beat them, join them
You're never gonna help yourself
If you can't beat them, join them
You'd better do it
Because it makes you feel good
If you can't beat them, join them
It's everyone for themselves
Move on out
