Stupid Games - Toploader

When all the boats had left the shore

A thousand people, maybe more

As the sun burnt through their eyes

You could sense their deep surprise

And I guess one would assume

That we’re playing different tunes

No one realised what was wrong

It was all lost in a song

And the people stopped to cry

A sea of tears flowed from their eyes

And then everybody says

But they always say to late

It’s such a shame, we all feel the pain

Of stupid games, it’s such a shame

There is no gain, we all feel the pain

Of stupid games

History passed me by at school

But I, by no means play the fool

The past and present melt to one

But the future now has gone

And I guess one would assume

That there’s nothing left to lose

No more science left to bend

The world was flat we reached the end

The other side now maybe nice

Now’s your turn to roll the dice

And then everybody’s still

But I can’t help but feel

It’s such a shame, we all feel the pain

Of stupid games, it’s such a shame

There is no gain, we all feel the pain

Of stupid games

Don’t you even see that we don’t

Want to play this game no more?

Send a satellite to rescue us alone

Alone once more

It’s such a shame, there is no gain

We all feel the pain, of stupid games

It’s such a shame, we all feel the pain

Of stupid games
