richard lindesay - always been a player lyrics

[verse 1]
i was chilling one night out with my flute
tapping on the keys and blowing a toot
then i picked up my favourite recorder
and played a lovely song while sitting in the corner
but a couple of guys, they were up to no good
started making fun of me and my wood
(wind instruments!)
they said you ain’t a player and i said well watch me play
and i loaded my recorder and i blew them away

[chorus]
always been a player, always been a player
i’ve always been a player
i’m a player now and i’ll be a player later
i’ve always been a player
always been a player, always been a player
i’ve always been a player
i’ll lighten up your life and i’ll make it less greyer
i’ve always been a player

[verse 2]
i used to think that i was a player and a winner
but i was teased so much that i became a quitter
then a ghost came to me in what seemed like a dream
and showed me that things were not what they seemed
my ancestor was a bad man who saved the wild west
further back a caveman who created flutes and jest
descendant from the future, he saved the human race
so they all were players and that’s no mistake
and hey, i think that i have got some serious groove
and i really don’t think that i have anything to prove
just playing the recorder as a fully grown dude
hey, brothafluta, that’s a player move
so with all of that in mind i really gotta say
i always was, i am now and i’ll always be a player
[chorus]
always been a player, always been a player
i’ve always been a player
i’m a player now and i’ll be a player later
i’ve always been a player
always been a player, always been a player
i’ve always been a player
whether i’m in new zealand or if i’m in australia
i’ve always been a player

[solo]

[chorus + key change]
always been a player, always been a player
i’ve always been a player
i’m a player now and i’ll be a player later
i’ve always been a player
always been a player, always been a player
i’ve always been a player
i really think i am, so i’ve really gotta say
i’ve always been a player

[outro + back to original key]
when my music teacher told me to practise i obeyed her
which is why as a flute player i’m not a failure
i practised a lot then so i could be a player later
i played the flute so loud i had lucky lucky neighbours
whether you’re the sheriff or whether you’re the mayor
don’t you try to stop me cause you wouldn’t have a prayer
i’m not telling you lies, no i’m telling the truth
i’m a player in life and i’m a player of flutes
