Oh 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 the ivory towers
Till they covered up what flowers
In the back of a black limousine
Oh, we make one another cry
We break apart an d we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die
That the other was to blame
Neither one will ever get it
So we pace at an eight by ten
Thinking about the things
that might have been
It's a dirty rotten shame
Yeah Yeah
People walkin' up to you,
singin' glory, hallelujah
And they'll try to sock it to you
In the name of the Lord
Gonna teach you how to meditate
Read your horoscope and cheat your fate
An d furthermore to hell with hate
Come on, get on board
Look around, tell me what you see
What's happening to you and me
God grant me serenity
To remember who I am
Cause you're giving up your sanity
For your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity
An d you don't give a dot a line
Oh yeah
