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 Till they're covered up in flowers In the back of a black limousine La da la da da da da, La da da da da de, I'm 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 8X10 Wanderin' about the things That might have been And it's 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 C'mon and get on board (Repeat chorus) Look around baby what'd you see What's been happening to you and me God granted it's serenity Just to remember who I am Cause you've given up your sanity Your pride and your bounty You turn your back on humanity And you don't give a damn damn damn (Repeat chourus X2)
