The Game - Ice Station Zero

Who do you know - knowing who to trust
Walking the walk -  putting up with the fuss
Seeing through lies - learning the game
Connecting the people - to carry the name
Constantly waiting - never know what to expect
Avoid allowing - your ride to wreck

It's all a game anyway you say it
It's all a game anyway you play it
It's all a game

It's how to convince - control an audience
What's cool - and what they should do
'Cause it's a simple language - for those simple minds
Repetition is crucial - and universal appeal
It's reaching a wide - vast amount of people
Learning what works - having tricks are a plus

Too much soul to please 
Determined like a disease, as we seize
The license to achieve, that's where we are climbing,
Always nickel & diming, just trying, soon we'll be flying
to a beat....
of a different song.  ICE STATION ZERO'S what's going on.
Questions, we got all the answers,
get in your veins like a cancer.  Run with this,
but feeling overwhelmed, well, court's dismissed.
It's all a game

This game is brutal - the reward is sweet
Always watch your back - so they don't chop off your feet
Have your inner circle - woven be strong
'Cause one moment you're a hit - the next you're gone
Would you care to play - you know the rules
Checkmates on your pawn - out the door with the fools
