All the games people play now
Every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now
Never saying what they mean

While they wind away the hours
In their ivory towers
To the covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousine

Though we make one another cry
Make our hearts and we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die
Said the other was to blame

Neither one will ever give in
Though we gaze on.......
Think about the things that might have been
And it's a turning rotton shape

People walking up to you
Singing glory halleluia
Then they try to sock it to you
In the name of Lord

They're going to teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope and cheat your fate
And further more to [bad word] with [bad word] on, get on board

Hey, look around and tell me what you see
What's happening to you and me
God granted me the serenity
To remember who I am, oh!

Cause you given up your sanity
All your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity
And you don't give a  [bad word] 

La di da da di daa da
La di da da di dii di

Talking about you and me
And the games people play
