Games people play

(written by: joe south sung by: rick price)

Oh the games people play now

Every night and every day now

Never meaning what they say now

And never saying what they mean

While they walk away the hours

In their ivory towers

We threw a couple of flowers

In the back of a black limousine

La da la da da da da,

La da da da da de,

Im a talkin about you and me And the games people play

You know we make one another cry

We break our hearts and we say goodbye

We cross our hearts and we hope to die

That the other was to blame

We need a woman that will give in So we gaze at an 8×10

Wanderin about the things

That might have been

And its a dirty rotten shame

(repeat chorus)

Now wait a minute

They come walkin up to ya

Singing glory haleuajah

Let me try to sock it to ya

In the name of the lord

They only show ya how to meditate

And to read your horoscope cheat your fate

Furthermore to hell with hate

Cmon and get on board

(repeat chorus)

Look around baby whatd you see

Whats been happening to you and me God granted its serenity

Just to remember who I am Cause youve given up your sanity

Your pride and your bounty

You turn your back on humanity

And you dont give a

(repeat chourus x2)
