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 gotta baby on the way
Your wife threw you out so you just can't stay
So 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 it's 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' [?] 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
