La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da da
Oh, the games people play now
every night and every day now
Never meaning what they say now
never saying what they mean
Oh they whine away the hours
in their ivory towers
'Til they're covered up with flowers
in the back of a black limousine.
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play.
Oh, they make one another cry
break their hearts and we say good-bye
Cross their heart and they hope to die
that the other was to blame
Neither one will ever give in
so they gaze at an eight by ten
Thinkin' 'bout the way it might have been and it's a dirty rotten shame,
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play.
People walking up to you
singing glory hallelujah
Then thy try to sock it to you, oh
in the name of the Lord
Oh, they teach how to meditate
read your horoscope and teach you faith
The furthermore the hell with hate come on and get on board
Look around and tell me what you see what's a-happenin' to you and to me
God grant me the serenity to just remember who I am.
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play.
Chorus:
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play.
Look around tell me what you see
What's happening to you and me
God grant me the serenity
To just remember who I am
'Cause your giving up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity
And you don't give a da-da-da-da
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da dee
I'm talkin' 'bout you and me
And the games people play
La la la mmm da da dee
La la la mmm da da da
La la la mmm da da da
Oh, the games people play now

Never meaning what they say now
