Party Games
Let's turn the lights down low and hide your pretty faces
This is like a horror show
They'll put on the latest plastic
Covering up the conversation
You're telling me, but I don't want to know
Out will come the closed shop humor
Making me think I should've left sooner
Aren't we having such a good time?
What must I do to make you mine?
Party games, I won't play them anyway
I see no reason to stay here and be caught by you
And you're playing games
They're not even funny names
And I'm not going to do it your way
I came only to give and you stole all my clothes
With your party games
Oh
My ticket says that this is fancy dress
It may be so, but I don't fancy anyone
I see them stake their dances
Believing that some rule of chance is out to win
Made for her, made for him
Why do I have to walk this line?
It's a game of life and limb
Your face and then the room starts to spin
Your party games, I won't play them anyway
I see no reason to stay here and be caught by you
And you're playing games
They're not even funny names
And I'm not going to do it your way
I came only to give and you stole all my clothes
With your party games
Oh
Okay, so let's play blind men
I bluffed my way to find them
And kick sand in their faces
On this island in the sun
Shine on until the morning
Cracks in your head like lightning
Typewriters crackle through a morning haze of TV blue
I tried to please so many
What joy there wasn't any peace for me
I would not have the crowd let me be
We did the latest dances
Stumbling 'cross the dance floor
Stances I'd never seen
The stabbing pain young hearts never lean
Turn the key, the door won't open
Can't say if your heart's not broken
Wrap it up in priceless clover but
Don't cry now, your party's over
Party games, I won't play them anyway
I see no reason to stay here and be caught by you
And you're playing games
They're not even funny names
And I'm not going to do it your way
I came only to give and you stole all my clothes
With your party games
Party games, I won't play them anyway
I see no reason to stay here and be caught by you
And you're playing games
They're not even funny names
And I'm not going to do it your way
I came only to give and you stole all my clothes
With your party games
Oh, your party games
Party games
