Games People Play

(album: Bust A Nut - 1994)

All the games people play now, every night every day now
Never meaning what they say now, never saying what they mean
While they while away the hours in their ivory towers
Till they're covered up with flowers in the back of a black limousine

Oh we make one another cry, breaking hearts when we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die, except the other was to blame
Either one will ever kill it, so we gaze and we make pretend
Thinking 'bout things that might have been, oh it's a dirty rotten shame

[Chorus:]
Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee
Talking 'bout you and me, and the games people play
Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee
Talking 'bout you and me, and the games people play

People walking up to ya, singing glory hallelujah
Saying what the hell's it to ya, if we do it in the name of the Lord
We're gonna teach ya how to meditate
(Preach our hearts from teacher's faith)
Put them on a hell of hate, come on, let's get on board

[Chorus]

[Solo]

Look around, tell me what you see, what's happening to you and me
Got burning my serenity, to the neighborhood at hand
'Cos you're giving up your sanity, or your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity, ow, when you don't give a damn, not a damn

Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee
Talking 'bout you and me, and the games people play
Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee
Talking 'bout everybody, talking 'bout you, 'bout you and me
(Ladandaladandadada) you and me, (ladandaladandadadee)
I'm talking bout the games, the games we all play
(Ladandaladandadada) ladanda, (ladandaladandadadee) ladandadadee
All the games, talking bout the games people play
(Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee)
(Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee)
(Ladandaladandadada, ladandaladandadadee)
