Janet Jackson - The Skin Game Lyrics
Official




See you, you in there dancin'
And I'm in here needing questions and answers

Contestants enter without knowin'
Try to learn the rules no one's showing
Equal chances (what?), No one loses
Not much can beat the odds, no excuses
Let's play the skin game

(Skin game)
(Skin game)

The stage is set so let's get started
Try to be the best but don't be outsmarted
You know what you're up against, no need to complain
Just figure out the best way to play
To play the skin game

The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down

The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down
Can't, can't, can't, can't
Can't, can't, can't, can't keep a good man down

(And I'm in here needin' questions answered)

The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down

(And I'm here needin' questions answered)

Outside looking in
The door is open but you can't get in
Something's in the way
It's a skin game
(Oh, just a skin game) just a skin game
Let's play the skin game

(Sing it for the people, y'all)

The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game, yeah)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't, can't, can't, can't (skin game)
Can't can't, can't keep a good man down (skin game)
Can't, can't, can't, can't (skin game)
Can't, can't, can't, can't (skin game)

The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (sing it for me)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (skin game)
The skin game is still around (playin' the skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (break it down) (sing it for me)

(Skin game)
(Sing it for the people y'all)
(Skin game)
(Sing it, sing it, sing it, sing it again)

The skin game is still around (playin' the skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game)
But you can't keep a good man down (playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around (skin game) (see you, you in there dancin')
But you can't keep a good man down (and I'm in here needin' questions answered)
(Playin' the skin game)
The skin game is still around
