Games People Play Lyrics by Paper Lace

First Edition

0

La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-dee
La-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da-da
Whoa, the games people play now
Every night and every day now
Never meanin' what they say now
Never sayin' what they mean
While they wile away the hours
In their ivory towers
'Til they're covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousine
Whoa-ah
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play now
Whoa, 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
But 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
Whoa-ah
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play now
People walkin' up to you
Singin' glory hallelujah
And they try and to sock it to you
In the name of the Lord
They're gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope and cheat your fate
And furthermore to hell with hate
Come on, get on board
Whoa-ah
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Look around tell me what you see?
What's happenin' to you and me?
God grant me the serenity
To just remember who I am
Whoa-ah
You've given up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turn you back on humanity
Oh, and you don't give a
Da, da, da, da, da
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play now
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
La-da-da, da-da-da, da-da
La-da-da, da-da da, da-dee
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
Thinkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play...
