Lover's they sometimes get On each others nerves They can really really be so mean Playing around with words Wanna know why do we do it Why we choose to break each others hearts Why when it keeps us far apart Ain't it funny the things we do For the sake of pride It don't matter who might get hurt As long as your satisfied We ought to be right to each other Ooh you know the things I'm speaking of Why do we mess around with love To many games that people play To many games that people play Far to many games that people play To many games that people play To many people they get hung up On those he say she say games We don't care who might get hurt And you know that's just insane We've got to stop look listen At the way we treat each other so unkind Why when it's just a waste of time To many games that people play To many games that people play Far to many games that people play To many games that people play You know what I'm talking bout There can really be no doubt I hope that you and I can work it out Stop these silly games that people play To many games that people play To many games that people play
