Life's so full of crazy ironies
Life's so full of crazy ironies
Life's so full of crazy ironies
Crazy ironies

Yeah

You can't stand to take a dive
When the fight gets hard
You want to win, want to save your life
You want to hide the scars

Well, it's a crazy, crazy game
But you want to win just the same

Give it up, lay it down
Fight the fight, gain the crown
Run to win, lose to gain
Give it up, and lay it down
It's the simple ironies
The simple ironies of life
I believe in life

Listen

You know the Master said to deny yourself
To give it all away, yeah
Losers keepers is what it is
You'll find yourself this way

It's a crazy, crazy game
But you want to win just the same

Give it up, lay it down
Fight the fight, gain the crown
Run to win, lose to gain
Give it up, and lay it down
It's the simple ironies
The simple ironies of life
That's right

Give it up, lay it down
Fight the fight, gain the crown
Run to win, lose to gain
Give it up, and lay it down
It's the simple ironies
The simple ironies of life

Give it up, lay it down
Fight the fight, gain the crown
Run to win, lose to gain
Give it up, and lay it down
It's the simple ironies
The simple ironies of life

Give it up, lay it down
Fight the fight, gain the crown
Run to win, lose to gain
Give it up, and lay it down
It's the simple ironies
The simple ironies of life

Give it up, lay it down
Fight the fight, gain the crown
Run to win
