"Injured in the Game of Love" is a song by American rock musician Donnie Iris, released in 1985 as the lead single from his fifth studio album No Muss...No Fuss.
A music video was also produced for the song, which depicts Iris working out in a gym and drinking egg whites.

Praising the song as "a good, singable tune", they believed it should "garner him renewed attention".
