Oh, the games people play now 
Every night and every day now 
Never meaning what they say now 
Never saying what they mean 
So they whine away the hours 
In their ivory towers 
Till they're covered up with flowers 
In the back of a black limousine.

Chorus: 
Na na na na na 
na na na na na nee 
I'm talking 'bout you and me 
And the games people play.

Oh, they make one another cry 
Break their hearts and they say goodbye 
Cross their hearts and they hope to die 
That the other was to blame 
Neither one would ever give in 
So they gaze at an eight by ten 
Thinkin' 'bout the ways it might have been 
And it's a dirty rotten shame.

Chorus: 
Na na na na na 
na na na na na nee 
I'm talking 'bout you and me 
And the games people play.

People walkin' up to you 
Singin' glory hallelujah 
And they try to send it to you 
In the name of the Lord 
Oh, they teach you how to meditate 
Read your horoscope and teach you faith 
And the further more the hell with hate 
Come on and get on board.

Chorus: 
Na na na na na 
na na na na na nee 
I'm talking 'bout you and me 
And the games people play.

Look around and tell me what you see 
What's a happening to you and me 
God grant me the serenity 
To just remember who I am 
'Cause you're givin' up your sanity 
For your pride and your vanity 
Turn your back on humanity 
Whoa and you don't give a damn...
