Games People Play

Lyrics

La-di-da-da-da-da
 La-di-da-la-di-di-di
 La-da-da-da-da-di-di
 La-di-da-la-di-di-di
 Oh, the games people play now
 Every night and every day now
 Never meaning what they say now
 Never saying what they mean
 While they while away the hours
 In their ivory towers
 'Til they're covered up with flowers
 In the back of a black limousine
 Though we make one another cry
 Break our hearts and we say goodbye
 Cross our hearts and we hope to die
 Said the other was to blame
 Neither one would ever give in
 Though we gaze on an ache again
 Thinkin' 'bout the things it might have been
 And it's a dirty rotten shame
 People walkin' up to ya
 Singin' "Glory, Hallelujah"
 And then they try to sock it to ya
 In the name of the Lord
 They gonna teach you how to meditate
 Read your horoscope and cheat your fate
 And further more to hell with hate
 Come on, get on board
 Look around and tell me what you see
 What's happening to you and me?
 God grant me the serenity
 To remember who I am
 'Cause you've given up your sanity
 All your pride and your vanity
 Turn your back at humanity
 And you don't give up
 La-di-da-da-da-da
 La-da-di-di-di-di-di
 Talking 'bout you and me
 And the games people play
