Games People Play

Mm

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-dee

La-da-da, da-da

La-da-da, da-da-da

Woah, the games people play now

Every night and every day now

Never meanin' what they say now

Never sayin' what they mean

While they wile away the hours

In their ivory towers

'Til they're covered up with flowers

In the back of a black limousine

Woah

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da

La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee

Talkin' 'bout you and me

And the games people play now

Will we make one another cry

Break a heart then we say goodbye

Cross our hearts and we hope to die

That the other was to blame

Woah

But neither one will ever give in

So, we gaze at an eight by ten

Thinkin' 'bout the things that might have been

And it's a dirty rotten shame

Woah-ah

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-dee

Talkin' 'bout you and me

And the games people play now

Oh, yes

Oh, alright

Oh, yes

C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon

Woah, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Now, look here

People walkin' up to you

Singin' glory hallelujah, ha-ha

And they try and to sock it to you

In the name of the Lord

They're gonna teach you how to meditate

Read your horoscope, cheat your fate

And furthermore to hell with hate

Come on, get on board

Woah

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da

La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee

Talkin' 'bout you and me

And the games people play

Now, wait a minute

Look around tell me what you see?

What's happenin' to you and me?

God grant me the serenity

To just remember who I am

Woah

'Cause you've given up your sanity

For your pride and your vanity

Turn you back on humanity

Oh, and you don't give a

Da, da, da, da, da

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da

La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee

I'll keep a-talkin' 'bout you and me, brother

And the games people play now, now

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da

La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee

Gonna talk 'bout you and me

Oh, and the games people play

I wonder can you come out and play?

Early in the mornin', woah yes

Talkin' 'bout you and me

And the games people play now
