Games People Play - Mel Tormé

Dadidadada dadidadidi

Lalalalalalala lalilalalala

Oh the games people play now

Every night and every day now

Never meaning what they say now

Never saying what they mean

So they while away the hours

In their ivory towers

Till they're covered up with flowers

In the back of a black limousine

Oh they make one another cry

Break their hearts and they say goodbye

Cross their hearts and they hope to die

That the other was to blame

Neither one would ever give in

So they gaze at an eight by ten

Thinking about the way it might have been

And it's a dirty rotten shame

People walking up to you

Singing glory hallelujah

And they try to sock it to you

In the name of the lord

Gonna they teach you how to meditate

Read your horoscope and cheat your fate

And the further more to hell with hate

Come on and 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 oh

I give your love satoday

On your cry in your family

Turn your back got you moledy

And turn giver

Ladidadada dadadadididi

Talking about you and me
