♫ Darkest of night with the moon shining bright
♫ There's a smoke going strong, a lot of things going on
♫ The man up the aisle has an air of great power
♫ The dudes have been with him for so long
Oh, super fat, [Bm] you're [A] gonna make your [E] fortune by the lot
[Bm] But if you [A] lose, don't [E] ask no questions why
[Bm] [D] The only [A] game you know [E] is do or die
[Bm] [A] Ah, ha, ha, [E] hard to understand what a hell of a man
This plot of the slum had a man, it wasn't dumb
But a weakness was shown, cause his hustle was long
His mind was his own, but the man lived alone
Oh, super fat, [Bm] you're [A] gonna make your [E] fortune by the lot
[Bm] But if you [A] lose, don't [E] ask no questions why
[Bm] The only [A] game you [E] know is do or die
[A] Ah, ha, [Em] ha, the game he [C] plays, he plays for keeps
[Em] Hustling [C] times in ghetto streets, trying [D] to get [E] over
[G] [E]
This is what he's trying to [Dm] do, y'all
[Em]
[C] Take all that he can take
Gambling with the odds of fate

[A#] [F#m]
[E] Oh, super fat, the aim of his role was to move a lot of flow
Ask him his dream, what does it mean, he wouldn't know
Can't be like the rest, it's the most you can bless
But the time's running out, and there's no happiness
Oh, super fat, [Em] [Bm]
you're gonna [A] make your [E] fortune by the lot
[Bm] But if you [A] lose, [E] don't ask no questions why
[D] The only [A] game you [E] know is do or [A] die
