Testo: Jerry Lee Lewis. Games People Play.

La da, da da, da da, da da, la da, da da, da da, da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play

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

La da, da da, da da, da da, la da, da da, da da, da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play

Oh, we make one another cry, break a heart when we say goodbye
Cross my heart and we hope to die that the other was to blame
Either one will give in, so we gaze at our eight by ten
Thinkin' 'bout things that might have been, oh, it's a dirty rotten shame

La da, da da, da da, da da, la da, da da, da da, da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play

People walkin' up to ya, singin' glory Hallelujah
And they're tryin' to sock it to ya in the name of the Lord
They're gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope and cheat your faith
And further more to hell with hate, come on and get on board

La da, da da, da da, da da, la da, da da, da da, da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play

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're givin' up your sanity or your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity and you don't give a damn, da da da

La da, da da, da da, da da, la da, da da, da da, da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play
La da, da da, da da, da da, la da, da da, da da, da dee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play
