Chapter Text

"Playing Games"

We flirt, 
we tease,
But we never seem to say 
what it is we really mean.
We fight, 
we scream,
But we never seem to hear 
all the words stuck in between.

You want us to play games
together 'til the end of time.
The only game I wanna play
is one where you say you'll be mine!
(One where you say you'll be mine.)

Yeah… Yeah… Yeah…. Yeah…
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaaaah!

Will we ever stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business? 
You know I wanna stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business.
I think that we should stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business. 
It's time for us to stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business. 

We smile,
we share,
But we never seem to see
all the feelings that are there.
We sulk,
we pout,
But we never seem to ask
what this game is all about.

We keep dancing 'round and 'round
this question of what we're meant to be,
Playing with each other's hearts 
when you should be here lovin' me!
(You should be here lovin' me.)

Yeah… Yeah… Yeah…. Yeah…
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeaaaaah!

Will we ever stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business? 
You know I wanna stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business.
I think that we should stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business. 
It's time for us to stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business. 

*Musical interlude with drum solo*

Will we ever stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business? 
Can't we please just stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business? 
I think that we should stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And start gettin' down to business. 
It's time for us to stop playing games
(stop playing games!)
And… can't you just get over here 
and kiss me already?



Notes:

Thanks for reading! I hope you enjoyed Mike's song lyrics.

The Song Book will be continually updated, with new songs added as they're performed. (I have at least four or five more already written and waiting for the story to catch up to them.)
