The Numbers Game - Thievery Corporation

I’m talking people about the same old game

Their running them numbers and the winners never change

The dice is loaded, the deck is stacked

The game itself will hold you back

Check out your mind and don’t be blind

To the numbers game

What I say

Don’t be in the dark all by yourself

Don’t play the hand that the dealer has dealt

We’re cashing out 'cause it’s time to sell

Taking back the power, gonna share that wealth

Come on now

Check out your mind and don’t be blind

To the numbers game

What I say

I’m talking people about respect

Baby you can’t win when you place that bet, come on now

The dice is loaded, the deck is stacked

The game itself will surely hold you back

Check out your mind and don’t be blind

To the numbers game

Check out your mind and don’t be blind

To the numbers game

Let’s get hip on this

So you won’t slip on this

See you gotta get hip on this

So you won’t trip on this

To the numbers

To the numbers game

Check out your mind and don’t be blind

Check out your mind and don’t be blind
