Oh the games people now every night and every day now |
|
Never meanin' what they say now never sayin' what they mean |
|
So they wile away the hours in their ivory towers |
|
Till they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine |
|
Lotten da la da da da lotten da la a dee de dee |
|
Talkin' bout you and me and the games people play |
|
Oh 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 |
|
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 |
|
Lotten da la da da da... |
|
People walkin' up to ya singing glory hallelujah |
|
And they're tryin' to sock it to ya in the name of the Lord |
|
They're gonna teach you how to meditate read your horoscope and cheat your fate |
|
And furthermore forget about hate come on and get on board |
|
Lotten da la da da da... |
|
Look around and tell me what you see what's happened to you and to me |
|
God grand me the serenity to just remember who I am |
|
Cause you've given up a sanity for a pride and your vanity |
|
Turn your back on humanity and you don't give a da da da |
|
Lotten da la da da da... |
|
Lotten da la da da da... |
