Games People Play

La-di-da-da-da-da La-di-da-la-di-di-di La-da-da-da-da-di-di La-di-da-la-di-di-di Oh, the games people play now Every night and every day now Never meaning what they say now Never saying what they mean While they while away the hours In their ivory towers 'Til they're covered up with flowers In the back of a black limousine Though we make one another cry Break our hearts and we say goodbye Cross our hearts and we hope to die Said the other was to blame Neither one would ever give in Though we gaze on an ache again Thinkin' 'bout the things it might have been And it's a dirty rotten shame People walkin' up to ya Singin' "Glory, Hallelujah" And then they try to sock it to ya In the name of the Lord They gonna teach you how to meditate Read your horoscope and cheat your fate And further more to hell with hate Come on, get on board Look around and tell me what you see What's happening to you and me? God grant me the serenity To remember who I am 'Cause you've given up your sanity All your pride and your vanity Turn your back at humanity And you don't give up La-di-da-da-da-da La-da-di-di-di-di-di Talking 'bout you and me And the games people play
