Games People Play
For long people have been playing games
They called these games
Game of chance
Game of death
Head games
Games that plan theaters of war
Men compete for victory
In the game of war, they share the booty
Thought it takes two for war
Only one side gets to tell the real story
of the Game
Heard the "Game is to be sold
Not to be told."
Game of sport
Hollywood's game of sort
When one says game
It may mean life, his lifestyle
Perhaps it's the game of the heart
Head game, game of love
Maybe just a ball game
One game comes with a hope
And another with a loss
And people continue to play
Games people play
People play the games
And the games play people
When one is compelled and addicted to the poker table
He is taken in by the game
He and the Game are one
In spirit and in soul
He is somehow reborn
And in his veins, like blood,
the Game flows
He made a covenant with no one
Yet a covenant to the Game in his mind is sworn
And he keeps on playing the Game, even alone
Games people play
If addiction takes place
People find a way
People play every day
People find every way to play
Sometimes, it's just a game
Most times it is the Game
Sometimes, one needs a name
At times, a play has to be made
Many times, one needs to make a play
If they must win, they must play
But when the Game takes a turn
People get hurt
Haven't you heard?
He took a big blow
That he didn't see coming forth!
He is done
And still making plays for a touchdown
He has to grasp his hold
On these dice of bones
He has to make a show!
For the Game, word of advice today:
Do not rise up to play
If you don't understand how the Game is played
Or you will be slayed
Seriously and become prey
Stay away, stay away
And there will be no game to play
Go your way
And live for the next day
Do not play!
