Lotten da da da da da
Lotten da da da da de
Talkin′ bout you and me
And the games people play
Oh the games people play now
Every night and every day now
Never meanin' what they say now
Never sayin′ 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
Lotten da da da da da
Lotten da da da da de
Talkin' bout you and me
And the games people play
We make one another cry
Break a heart and then we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die
That the other was to blame
Neither one will ever give in
So we gaze at an eight by ten
Thinkin′ bout the things that might have been
And it′s a dirty rotten shame
Lotten da da da da da
Lotten da da da da de
Talkin' bout you and me
And the games people play
People walkin′ up to ya
Singin' glory hallelujah
And they try to sock it to ya
In the name of the Lord
They′re gonna teach ya how to meditate
Read your horoscope and cheat your fate
And furthermore to hell with hate
Come on and get on board
Lotten da da da da da
Lotten da da da da de
Talkin' bout you and me
And the games people play
Look around and tell me what you see
What′s a-happenin' to you and me
God grant me the serenity
To remember who I am
'Cause you′ve given up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity
And you don′t give a da da da
Lotten da da da da da
Lotten da da da da de
Talkin' bout you and me
And the games people play
