Oh the games people play now
Every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now
Never saying what they meanWhile they wile away the hours
In their ivory towers
Till they're covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousineChorus
La-da da da da da da da
La-da da da da da de
Talking 'bout you and me
And the games people playOh 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 blameBut neither one ever will give in
So we gaze at an eight by ten
Thinking 'bout the things that might have been
and It's a dirty rotten shameRepeat ChorusPeople walking up to you
Singing glory hallelujah
And they try to sock it to you
In the name of the LordThey're gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope, cheat your fate
And further more to hell with hate
Come on and get on boardRepeat ChorusLook around tell me what you see
What's happening to you and me
God grant me the serenity
To remember who I amCause you've given up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turned your back on humanity
And you don't give a da da da da daRepeat Chorus
