Oh, yeah I heard about a person who had a broken heart With nothing to drive him on, no hope, no spark, no flame He couldn't see at all, tears, they were blinding him He kept it all inside, the guilt and all the pain You know, I say, I tried to warn him They had him backed up against the wall I hope I'm not too late No one can tell you exactly what you have gotta be You've got to stand your ground and fight to save your life It may be hard but ooh, ooh, it's the only way Always remembering there ain't no second prize There ain't no second prize You know I say I tried to warn him They had him backed up against the wall Why can't I stand up and try to tell him? They've got me backed up against the wall I hope I'm not too late No one can tell you exactly what you have gotta be You've got to stand your ground and fight to save your life It may be hard but ooh, ooh, it's the only way Always remembering there ain't no second prize There ain't no second prize Oh, no, there ain't no second prize There ain't no second prize Oh, no, there ain't no second prize There ain't no second prize Oh, no, there ain't no second prize There ain't no second prize Oh, no, there ain't no second prize Never never never never gonna be Oh, no, there ain't no second prize
