Petula Clark Games People Play
All the games people play now
Every night, every day now
Never meanin' what they say now
Never sayin' what they mean
While they wile away the hours
In their ivory towers
Till they're covered up with flowers
In the back of a black limousine
Oh, we make one another cry
Breakin' hearts when we say goodbye
Cross our hearts and we hope to die
Except the other was to blame
Either one will ever kill it
So we gaze and we make pretend
Thinkin' 'bout things that might have been
Ow, it's a dirty rotten shame
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play
People walkin' up to ya
Singin', "Glory Hallelujah"
Sayin', "What the hell's it to ya?
If we do it in the name of the Lord"
We're gonna teach you how to meditate
Preach our hearts from teacher's faith
Put them on a hell of hate
Come on, let's get on board
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play

Look around, tell me what you see
What's happenin' to you and me
Got burning my serenity
To remember who I am
'Cause you're givin' up your sanity
Or your pride and your vanity
Turn your back on humanity
Ow, when you don't give a damn, not a damn
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
Talkin' 'bout you and me and the games people play
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
Talkin' 'bout everybody, talkin' 'bout you
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
(Oh, you and me, you and me)
(I'm talkin' 'bout the games, the games we all play)
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
(Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee)
(All the games, talkin' 'bout the games people play)
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
Ladan, dala, danda, dada, ladan, dala, danda, dadee
