Games People Play Lyrics
(Male) Can't get no rest
Don't know how I work all day
When will I learn?
Memories get in the way
I walk around
I can't hear a sound, folks talkin' loud, but I
Don't see at all
I gotta get away, gotta get away, I don't
(Female) Know where to go
It's hopeless so
I guess I'll leave it alone
(Male)well I Spent all my day
Fixin' up to go somewhere
Thought I was late
And I found she wasn't there
I guess I'll find
Love, peace of mind, some other time, but I
Still have today
I gotta get away, gotta get away, I don't
(Female) Know where to go
It's hopeless so
I guess I'll leave it alone
Games people play
Night or day they're just not matchin'
What they should do
Keeps me feelin' blue
Been down too long
Right, wrong, they just can't stop it
Spendin' all day
Thinking just of you
(Male) Twelve forty-five
Headed for the subway home
I took my time
'Cause I felt so all alone
Not far away
I heard a funny sound, took a look around, and I
Could see her face
Smilin' as she came, callin' out my name, so I
(Female) Know where to go
We'll take it slow
Guess I'll call it a day
Games people play
Night or day they're just not matchin'
What they should do
Keeps me feelin' blue
Games people play.....
Don't know how I work all day
When will I learn?
Memories get in the way
I walk around
I can't hear a sound, folks talkin' loud, but I
Don't see at all
I gotta get away, gotta get away, I don't
It's hopeless so
I guess I'll leave it alone
Fixin' up to go somewhere
Thought I was late
And I found she wasn't there
I guess I'll find
Love, peace of mind, some other time, but I
Still have today
I gotta get away, gotta get away, I don't
It's hopeless so
I guess I'll leave it alone
Night or day they're just not matchin'
What they should do
Keeps me feelin' blue
Right, wrong, they just can't stop it
Spendin' all day
Thinking just of you
Headed for the subway home
I took my time
'Cause I felt so all alone
I heard a funny sound, took a look around, and I
Could see her face
Smilin' as she came, callin' out my name, so I
We'll take it slow
Guess I'll call it a day
Night or day they're just not matchin'
What they should do
Keeps me feelin' blue

What a great song about the funk of love, with a superb melody and perfect rhythm.
I feel like "nowhere to go" turns into "know where to go" (or vice-versa), which is just so happy and clever and wonderful. Love it.
