It's a Game - Bay City Rollers

The clown came down to meet me with a smile upon his face,

He fired the starting pistol and

began the human race

There were faces all around me they were running everywhere

But everywhere is nowhere

And nowhere isn’t there.

CHORUS

It’s a game a game, a game that we’re playing

But I don’t mind but I don’t make the rules

It’s a game, a game, a game that we’re playing

Just a game for lovers and fools

Well there’s snakes upon your ladder

and there’s dice upon your skirt

There’s lipstick on my collar

And there’s sweat upon my shirt

the neighbors will start talking but

you know that I don’t care

For the neighbors, they are nowhere

and nowhere isn’t there.

CHORUS

It’s a game a game, a game that we’re playing

But I don’t mind but I don’t make the rules

It’s a game, a game, a game that we’re playing

Just a game for lovers and fools
