Games People Play

Oh, the games people play now
 Every night and every day now
 Never meaning what they say now
 Never saying what they mean
 Oh, they whine away the hours
 In their ivory towers
 'Til they're covered up with flowers
 In the back of a black limousine
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-da
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-dee
 I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
 And the games people play
 Oh, they make one another cry
 Break their hearts and they say good-bye
 Cross their heart and they hope to die
 That the other was to blame
 Neither one will ever give in
 So they gaze at an eight by ten
 Thinkin' 'bout the way it might have been
 And it's a dirty rotten shame
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-da
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-dee
 I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
 And the games people play
 Oh, they teach ya how to meditate
 Read your horoscope and teach you faith
 Furthermore the hell with hate
 Come on and get on board
 Look around and tell me what you see
 What's a-happenin' to you and to me
 God grant me the serenity
 To just remember who I am
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-da
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-dee
 I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
 And the games people play
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-da
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-dee
 I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
 And the games people play
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-da
 La-la-la-hm-da-da-dee
