Oh the games people play, now.
Every night and every day, now.
Never meanin' what they say,
Never sayin' what they mean.
First you wind away your hours,
In your ivory towers.
Soon you'll be covered up in flowers,
In the back of a black limousine.
People walking up to you,
Singing glory hallelujah.
Then they try to sock it to you, in the name of the lord.

Na na na na na na.
Na na na na na na.
Talking about you and me,
And the games people play.

Ooh-ooh! Ooh-ooh! ooh-ooh!

Ten they teach you how to meditate,
Read your horoscope and cheat your fate.
And further more to hell with hate,
Come on and get myself on board.

Na na na na na na.
Na na na na na na.
Talking about you and me,
And the games people play.

Turn around and look at what you see,
What's happening to you and me?
God grant me the serenity, yeah,
To remember who I am.

First you given up your sanity,
For your pride and your vanity.
Turn your back on humanity, yeah:
And you don't give a damn.

Na na na na na na.
Na na na na na na.
Talking about you and me,
And the games people play.
