The Games We Play - The Hollies

Well I heard your mother say

what a pleasant boy you’re going with

that I don’t mean any harm

and I only want to play

Though I know she’s just protecting you

you’re just a little girl

Well if your mother only knew the games we play

When I take you home with me all the family get along with you

Sitting all through tea

wondering what we’re gonna do Leaving us alone

the temptation’s far too strong

If your family only knew the games we play

Are you sure we’re getting away with this

You cannot fool your mother or your father for long

Only time will tell

if they are right and we are wrong

Are you sure we’re getting away with this

You cannot fool your mother or your father for long

Only time will tell

if they are right and we are wrong

They know the games we play

There’s no hiding things like this from them

We know we’re not the first

and we’ll never be the last

Everybody gets hung up we might have to pay

and everybody knows the games we play
