Susanna Hoffs - Name of the Game

I saw the railway master

I looked him in the eye

I said, "Would you go much faster

If you thought that you would die?"

He said, "No, not me, sir, I could not care

In fact, I would not try

For protest would not take me far

It's different, me not being a star"

I lock my feelings in a jar

Until another day

Oh, comfort me, dear brother

Won't you tell me what you know?

For somewhere in this painful world

Is a place where I can go

Oh, long-awaited mother

Is it time to make a show?

And take your babies to your breast

You know we never passed the test

And all our sins should be confessed

Before we carry on

Oh, don't refuse me

If you choose me, you'll follow my shame

No, don't confuse me

For I know it's the name of the game

I got up off my pillow

I looked up at the sun

I said, "You can see quite clearly, now

Things that we have done

We burned your sacred willow

Our battles we have won

But did we get so very far?

It's different, me not being a star"

Lock my feelings in a jar

Until we go away

Oh, don't refuse me

If you choose me, you'll follow my shame

No, don't confuse me

For I know it's the name of the game

Oh, don't refuse me

If you choose me, you'll follow my shame

No, don't confuse me

For I know it's the name of the game
