THE GAME

There’s a game in life that everybody plays

it is played all over the world in many different ways

This is a game that has many different rules

it’s played by those that think they are smart, and it’s played by fools

As every rule has it’s conception

every rule has it’s exception

As you use these rules as your tools

you’ll find that every exception has it’s rules

There’s a game you have to play to the end

but it’s a game no one can ever win

The game can be played for your whole life

sometimes we even take along a husband or wife

To play the game can really be cool

some play nice and some play cruel

The game can make your nerves run thin

the rules of the game can sometimes make you sin

There is a game that can keep you on the run

some people play for keeps and some play for fun

In the game all thing are fair

and some that play the game just don’t care

There’s a game that shouldn’t be played with a friend

that is one of the rules, but rules are made to bend

When playing with a friend, and you take a roll in the clover

when the game is done, your friendship could be over

There is a game where there is no wrong or right

and sometimes to reach your goal, you may have to fight

There is a game where there is no blame

but we still point our fingers just the same

There’s a game that if you want to make it through

you should find someone that likes to play with you

If you can find someone that seems like they were sent from above

If you can find the right person, you’ll do well in this game of Love
