Lyrics
Stepping in the club and I'm sober as a judge I hit the bar to get a little courage from the Dutch I'm waiting to get served and I'm nearly at the front But there's always some chump who wants to push and shove Leaning on the counter and taking up all the space Tryna wave a tenner in the barman's face I ask him how it's going just to keep engaged Then when the barman says “next” I'm like “yes please mate” Walking through the crowd with a drink in my hand Scoping out the place and tryna get the lay of the land Nodding to the beat that the DJ's spinning It's early so the only people dancing are the women All the guys are standing by the side and just look Or pretend to text but are scrolling through their phone book I chuckle to myself like “These dudes are so lame” But I stop coz I realise that I'm doing the same You win some and you lose some You lose some and you win some And if you don't ever lose none You ain't never gonna win none On my second drink now and starting to feel chatty But I'm still just stood alone coz nobody takes my fancy Finally I spot a girl I like and we catch eyes She smiles and looks away which I take as a sign The only problem is she's with a bunch of her friends So if I go over now they'll all jump to her defence I hang back a minute just to think up a plan When out of nowhere I feel a big slap on the back… “Who the…” oh, it's Matt some guy I used to work with Who's smashed and wants to chat, but his timing's far from perfect “Yeah It's good to see you too mate, it's been too long” I fob him off but by the time I do the girl is gone Just then another girl is like “Remember me? “It's Clare, we met at that party the other week” That's when the first girl appears again from out of nowhere “Matt come over here – I want you to meet this girl Clare…” You win some and you lose some You lose some and you win some And if you don't ever lose none You ain't never gonna win none I see her leave her friends and head for the smoking area – Finally this is my chance at last to get near to her I play it cool like I've not been trying all night “Oh hey, you OK? I don't suppose you've got a light?” Corny little tactic but it seems to do the trick And in five minutes we're laughing til we've both got a stitch We head back in and have a drink and a shuffle As the night goes on we have a kiss and cuddle At the end of the evening I ask her for her digits And with absolutely no resistance she gives it As I get my phone out she sees my lighter fall And I'm like “Oh I guess I must have had one after all…” The next day I wake up feeling like a true player But don't wanna look too keen so wait to text her later But the response I get make me a little humbler Coz some dude texts back “Sorry mate, wrong number” You win some and you lose some You lose some and you win some And if you don't ever lose none You ain't never gonna win none
