Games People Play

Lyrics

I'll sing, I'll rap and then I'll say To the story about the games people play Life is short, you won't be left behind So you use games to ease your mind Try to make changes, try to make it right The body listens so you gotta fight Speak your mind and then you'll say You're just gettin' over by the games people play Games people play Games people play Games people play Games people play Bills to pay, you got a baby on the way Your wife threw you out so you just can't stay Show no shame when you called her names She got sick and tired of you playing games You lost your mind and you lost your cool 'Cause the games you played weren't fit for a fool Never win, you always lose If the game ain't drugs it's got to be booze Games people play Games people play Games people play Games people play Don't play no games on me! Don't play no games on me! Don't play no games on me! [Crosstalking at dice game] Winners have the answers for us all Losers have the problems that make them fall Winners have money in a stash Losers just brag and talk big trash Winners go down in history Losers just cause us misery Winners have the feeling you just can't beat Losers have the agony of defeat Blackjack, poker, cee-lo, roulette Like Pac-man they eat up every buck you bet Numbers, sports and OTB Your horse took last, and plain to see You took your last quarter to play the slots Hoping and praying you'd hit the jackpot But when it's all over, everything's the same You're just one of those people just playin' the game Games people play Games people play Games people play Games people play Winners will stand out, they're the best Losers are the ones that blend with the rest Winners will do without being asked Losers are the ones that try to be last Winners will talk rather than fight Losers need a gun cause they don't see the light Winners are the people you remember you met Losers are the ones you try to forget You had 4 aces, you thought it was enough The next man beat you with a royal flush You played every red across the track Before you sat down it came out black You're sittin' with 20, you thought you had the juice The dealer had 19, he pulled a deuce You kept yellin' seven with all that mouth But when you threw the dice, it just crapped out Games people play Games people play Games people play Games people play I'll sing, I'll rap and then I'll say To the story about the games people play Life is short, you won't be left behind So you use games to ease your mind Try to make changes, try to make it right The body listens so you gotta fight Speak your mind and then you'll say You're just gettin' over by the games people play Games people play Games people play Games people play Games people play Don't play no games on me! Don't play no games on me! Games, games, games Games, games, games Gaaaaames! Got no time for games Got no time Got no I got no I got no Got no, got no time for games [Crosstalking at card game]
