When The Chips Are Down lyrics

[FATES]

Life ain't easy

Life ain't fair

A girl's gotta fight for her rightful share

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

Help yourself

To hell with the rest

Even the one who loves you best

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

[EURYDICE]

Oh, my aching heart...

[FATES]

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

Take if you can

Give if you must

Ain't nobody but yourself to trust

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

Aim for the heart

Shoot to kill

If you don't do it then the other one will

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

What you gonna do when the chips are down

Now that the chips are down?

And the first shall be first

And the last shall be last

Cast your eyes to heaven

You get a knife in the back

Nobody's righteous

Nobody's proud

Nobody's innocent

Now that the chips are down

Now that the-

Now that the-

Now that the-

Now that the-

Now that the chips are down
