Party Games Lyrics

Let's turn the lights down low and hide your pretty faces

This is like a horror show

They'll put on the latest plastic

Covering up the conversation

You're telling me, but I don't want to know

Out will come the closed shop humor

Making me think I should've left sooner

Aren't we having such a good time?

What must I do to make you mine?

Party games, I won't play them anyway

I see no reason to stay here and be caught by you

And you're playing games

They're not even funny names

And I'm not going to do it your way

I came only to give and you stole all my clothes

With your party games

Oh

My ticket says that this is fancy dress

It may be so, but I don't fancy anyone

I see them stake their dances

Believing that some rule of chance is out to win

Made for her, made for him

Why do I have to walk this line?

It's a game of life and limb

Your face and then the room starts to spin

Your party games, I won't play them anyway

I see no reason to stay here and be caught by you

And you're playing games

They're not even funny names

And I'm not going to do it your way

I came only to give and you stole all my clothes

With your party games

Oh

Okay, so let's play blind men

I bluffed my way to find them

And kick sand in their faces

On this island in the sun

Shine on until the morning

Cracks in your head like lightning

Typewriters crackle through a morning haze of TV blue

I tried to please so many

What joy there wasn't any peace for me

I would not have the crowd let me be

We did the latest dances

Stumbling 'cross the dance floor

Stances I'd never seen

The stabbing pain young hearts never lean

Turn the key, the door won't open

Can't say if your heart's not broken

Wrap it up in priceless clover but

Don't cry now, your party's over

Party games, I won't play them anyway

I see no reason to stay here and be caught by you

And you're playing games

They're not even funny names

And I'm not going to do it your way

I came only to give and you stole all my clothes

With your party games

Party games, I won't play them anyway

I see no reason to stay here and be caught by you

And you're playing games

They're not even funny names

And I'm not going to do it your way

I came only to give and you stole all my clothes

With your party games

Oh, your party games

Party games

Party games
