Games People Play Lyrics By The Alan Parsons Project

    where do we go from here now that all of the children are growin’ up
    and how do we spend our lives if there’s no one to lend us a hand

    i don’t wanna live here no more i don’t wanna stay
    ain’t gonna spend the rest of my life quietly fading away

    games people play you take it or you leave it
    things that they say are not right
    if i promised you the moon and the stars would you believe it
    games people play in the middle of the night

    modified
    where do we go from here now that all of the children have grown up
    and how do we spend our time knowing nobody gives us a damn

    i don’t wanna live here no more i don’t wanna stay
    ain’t gonna spend the rest of my life quietly fading away

    games people play you take it or you leave it
    things that they say just don’t make it right
    if i’m telling you the truth right now do you believe it
    games people play in the middle of the night

    games people play you take it or you leave it
    things that they say are not right
    if i promise you the moon and the stars would you believe it
    games people play in the middle of the night

    games people play you take it or you leave it
    things that they say just don’t make it right
    if i’m telling you the truth right now do you believe it
    games people play in the middle of the night
