The games we play

Well I heard your mother say
What a pleasant boy you´re going with
That I don´t mean any harm
And I only want to play
Though I know she´s just protecting you
You´re just a little girl
Well if your mother only knew the games we play
When I take you home with me
All the family get along with you
Sitting all through tea
Wondering what we´re gonna do
Leaving us alone
The temptation´s far too strong
If your family only knew the games we play
Are you sure we´re getting away with this
You cannot fool your mother or your father for long
Only time will tell
If they are right and we are wrong
[Repeat]
They know the games we play
There´s no hiding things like this from them
We know we´re not the first
And we´ll never be the last
Everybody gets hung up
We might have to pay
And everybody knows the games we play
What a pleasant boy you´re going with
That I don´t mean any harm
And I only want to play
Though I know she´s just protecting you
You´re just a little girl
Well if your mother only knew the games we play
When I take you home with me
All the family get along with you
Sitting all through tea
Wondering what we´re gonna do
Leaving us alone
The temptation´s far too strong
If your family only knew the games we play
Are you sure we´re getting away with this
You cannot fool your mother or your father for long
Only time will tell
If they are right and we are wrong
[Repeat]
They know the games we play
There´s no hiding things like this from them
We know we´re not the first
And we´ll never be the last
Everybody gets hung up
We might have to pay
And everybody knows the games we play
