It's a Game

The clown came down to meet me

With a smile upon his face

He fired his starting pistol

And began the human raceThere were faces all around me

They were running everywhere

But everywhere is nowhere

And nowhere isn't thereIt's a game, a game, a game that we're playing

Well, I don't mind but I don't make the rules

It's a game, a game, a game that we're playing

Just a game for lovers and foolsThere's snakes upon your ladder

And there's dice upon your skirt

There's lipstick on my collar

And there's sweat upon my shirtThe neighbors will start talking

But you know that I don't care

For the neighbors they are nowhere

And nowhere isn't thereIt's a game, a game, a game that we're playing
