Wax Mannequin – Someone Fixed the Game

Wax Mannequin – Someone Fixed the Game Lyrics

Artist: Wax Mannequin
Song: Someone Fixed the Game

Going 140 on the 401
The cop lights flash me down outside Kingston
The officer sad
Son, I’m just like you

Try to ease up and pass on through
I’m shifty in the customs line
My suitcase is full of shitty Dutch wine
She hears the bottles rattle and clink

Waves me right through with a knowing wink
My shopping cart won’t fit any more
Thoughtlessly, I walk right through the door
The clerk said you don’t look like a thief

I will let it slide you can pay me next week
Oh, someone fixed the game for me
Someone fixed the game for mе
I’m not on top, but I can see

That somebody fixed it for me
I’m sick and scarеd of livin’ downtown
With the disenfranchised volatile crowd
The bank man said he’d sell us a loan

For a no money down suburban home
Well, the cop, the nurse, the fire brigade
I break down they all run to my aid
It don’t matter just how much I get stuck

Someone arrives to dig me up
Someone fixed the game for me
Someone fixed the game for me
I scrambled high enough to see

That somebody fixed it for me
When other blokes get tossed in the clink
I snake by to frolic and drink
Some say I’m clever or nice

But that’s just code for privileged and White
So if you’re of the less fortunate ilk
Man up and hope for somebody else
Then in a generation or two

Someone will fix the game for you
Like someone fixed the game for me
I got a pair of knights and I’m 〈.?.〉 history
I’m no card shark, but the dealer knows me

Somebody fixed it I see
But, a storm has come
There’s a flood rushing in
It’s up to my nick and it’s through to my skin

Keep your head down
Everything’s fine
Don’t worry ’bout yours, I got what’s mine
You see the auctioneer is manning the raft

Calling out the oars and the mast
If I can bid the other guy down
I will sail home; the rest can drown
Someone fixed the game for me

Someone fixed the game for me
That sun’s sure hot, but I’m sailin’ free
Somebody fixed this for me
Yeah, someone fixed the game for me

Someone fixed the game
Not a drop to drink no land to see
Somebody fix this for me
Can somebody fix this for me
