Games People Play
[Intro: Lenny Zakatek]
Where do we go from here
Now that all of the children are growin' up?
And how do we spend our lives
If there's no one to lend us a hand?
[Verse: Lenny Zakatek]
I don't wanna live here no more
I don't wanna stay
Ain't gonna spend the rest of my life
Quietly fading away
(Ah)
[Chorus: Lenny Zakatek]
Games people play
You take it or you leave it
Things that they say aren't alright
If I promised you the moon and the stars
Would you believe it?
Games people play in the middle of the night
[Post-Chorus: Lenny Zakatek]
Where do we go from here
Now that all of the children have grown up?
And how do we spend our time
Knowing nobody gives us a damn?
(Hoo! Hoo-hoo-hoo-hoo!)
[Verse: Lenny Zakatek]
I don't wanna live here no more
I don't wanna stay
Ain't gonna spend the rest of my life
Quietly fading away, yeah
[Chorus: Lenny Zakatek]
Games people play
You take it or you leave it
Things that they say just don't make it right
If I'm telling you the truth right now
Do you believe it?
Games people play in the middle of the night
[Instrumental Interlude & Guitar Solo]
[Chorus: Lenny Zakatek]
(Ow!)
Games people play
You take it or you leave it
Things that they say aren't alright
If I promised you the moon and the stars
Would you believe it?
Games people play in the middle of the night
Games people play
You take it or you leave it
Things that they say just don't make it right
If I'm telling you the truth right now
Do you believe me?
Games people play in the middle of the night
