No One Gets the Prize Lyrics


No one, no one gets the prize
No one, no one, no one gets the prizeWe were best of friends, it all began
He came in to town and changed the plan
I knew she felt, the same as me
Which one of us would it beJust in fun, fight begun
Before long a web of hate was spun
She pretended same as me
Oh, but friends again we'd never beAnd no one, no one gets the prize
She told him lies, and I told him lies
No one, no one gets the prizeShe schemed and dreamed
And told him dirt that I was wrong for him
I told him all the boys she'd hurt
And I would number themHe was the ray of light that made our hearts live
But either one of us knew really how to give
So we scandalized and criticized
And then we learned how to despiseNo one, no one gets the prize
She told him lies and I lied, I lied, yeah
No one, no one gets the prize

No, no, noYeah, yeah
Back offTried to steal him, tried to steal him
Tried to steal him, runnin' behind my back
Tried to steal him
Tried to show him where it was atWatch it nowNo, no I won't take second place
No, no tell him to his face
We were friends for so, so, so long
Messed around, now he's gone, gone, gone, goneNo one, no one gets the prize, no
No one, no one gets the prize
I wasn't alive, a love thats satisfiedNo one, no one gets the prize
It wasn't fair, the love I couldn't share
No one, no one gets the prizeNo one, no one gets the prize
No one, no one gets the prizeShe lied, I lied, we lied
No one, no one

Diana Ross (born Diane Ernestine Earle Ross on 26 March 1944 in Detroit, Michigan, USA) is an American soul, R&B and pop singer and actress. Ross is one of the most successful female artists of her era, both due to her solo work and her role as lead singer of The Supremes during the 1960s.

In 1959, Ross was brought to the attention of Milton Jenkins, the manager of the local doo-wop group The Primes, by Mary Wilson. Primes member Paul Williams convinced Jenkins to enlist Ross in the sister group The Primettes, which included Wilson, Florence Ballard and Betty McGlown.

In 1976, Billboard magazine named her the female entertainer of the century. In 1993, The Guinness Book Of World Records pronounced her the most successful female artist ever (the title is now attributed to Madonna), partly due to her combined total of eighteen number-one singles, six of them recorded solo and the remaining dozen from her work with the Supremes.

She was also one of the few pop singers to find modest success in the acting world winning an Academy Award nomination for her role as Billie Holiday in the 1972 film, "Lady Sings the Blues" as well as having hits with other film roles such as "Mahogany", "Out of Darkness" and "Double Platinum", not to mention her role in "The Wiz".

Ms. Ross has been awarded many lifetime achievement accolades from many organizations and media outlets, including BET, Soul Train, the NAACP Image Awards, the Kennedy Center Honors in 2007 and the Grammy Lifetime Achievement in 2011.

Her professional vocal collaborators have included the following during her career: Marvin Gaye, Lionel Richie, Rod Stewart, Stevie Wonder, Michael Jackson, Julio Iglesias, Jose Carreras, Placido Domingo, Westlife, and Smokey Robinson, among others.
