call it a bad situation the other day I called on my friend and help me on the way I thought he was someone that I can trust but I must've been askin' a little too much before I can even a-leave my room, I was a talk of the town by the afternoon everyone cashed in on the glory and added their own a little twist to the story and by the time they got it back for me it grown a lot much bigger than my eyes can see my lady came knockin' at my door then she said to me she didn't want me no more I didn't know what to say or do somebody took a lie and made it come true why do we spread much devastation and hurtin' each other all across the nation? (Chorus:) if we're all the same, why do people play games? we live our lives insane runnin' in and out games who's playin' games? everybody takes a turn who's playin' games? when will they ever learn? who's playin' games? I don't wanna be left out who's playin' games? who's playin'? you know it took a long time to recover I have to go find me another lover smebody told her to beware and my love has disadvantaged in thin air and we were finished before we got started and now we're both sit brokenhearted somebody had it in for mme and so now our love it will never be it's a hell of a lesson to learn to trust someone and then get burned but I guess there is a price we pay 'cause we all go through it every day and just because you're not involved that don't get the problem solved it's game, it got no score and if you don't play, you're a loser for sure (Chorus) whenever there's a time for truth the time is now, everybody unite we can have a better world so get it together, let's make it right if peace to you and love for her sent from this heaven above everybody needs a friend the perfect way to find true love (guitar solo) (Chorus x3)
