Games We Play

You played a shady game

You dried up all I had

Then you did it again

Oh how could you do that?

Just lies and token promises

You hit me where I stand

I guess I must deserve this

We all get dealt our hand

Keep yourself together

Keep it straight

Keep cool - keep cool

You wanna play in the game

Then you'd better mind the rules

There’s nothing to be gained

By screwing me now

It won't do- it won't do

It’s all gonna be coming back around to you

It’s just those games we play

Day and night

You chose this way

Be satisfied

It’s just those games we play

For wrong or right

Win or lose

Can’t give up the fight

The talk will keep you down

You won't know where you stand

Their praise will fade away

Can’t take dignity back

When friends become your enemies

You’ve cheated all you can

Guess that's the price you pay

We all get dealt our hand

Keep yourself together

Keep it straight

Keep cool - keep cool

You wanna play in the game

Then you'd better mind the rules

There’s nothing to be gained

By screwing me now

It won't do- it won't do

It’s all gonna be coming back around to you

It’s just those games we play

Day and night

You chose this way

Be satisfied

It’s just those games we play

For wrong or right

Win or lose

Can’t give up the fight

I cut you off my list

Only cause you insist that you are not my friend

And you are not the first to go

But the smaller it grows the bigger I count my win

Cause I have wasted too much time on reason and rhyme

Trying to justify your head

Now I don't mind how many times you trying take me on

Or if we never play again

It’s just those games we play

Day and night

You chose this way

Be satisfied

It’s just those games we play

For wrong or right

Win or lose

Can’t give up the fight
