The purpose of a man is to love a woman,
And the purpose of a woman is to love a man,
So come on baby let's start today, Come on baby let's play
The game of love

(notably sung by The Mind Benders)

Oh the games people play now,
Every night and every day now,
Never meaning what they say now,
Never saying what they mean.
Talkin' about you and me
And the games people play.

--Unsure of artist; mid-1970s

What's the name of the game
Does it mean anything to you

Try to let go of the truth
the battles of your youth
'cause this is just a game
it's a beautiful lie...

---30 Seconds to Mars, "Beautiful Lie"
(I'm seeing them live tomorrow! =)

If looks would kill, they probably will,
in games without frontiers, war without tears

Old enough now to change your name.
If nobody loves you, is it the same?
It's the woman in you that makes you want to play this game.

--OK, this is a very old memory, and I may not have the lyrics right, and I'm guessing it is Neil Young, because that's who it sounds like in my head!

Nan, Cowgirl in the Sand, Neil Young. :)

And my play:

Dealing card games with the old men in the club car
Penny a point ain't no one keeping score

The City of New Orleans
Steve Goodman

Cause it's 1, 2, 3 strikes you're out at the old ball game

"Take Me Out to the Ballgame"

Shanona Ryder said...

Time to escape
the clutches of a name
no, this is not a game...

---30STM, "Escape"
(from the album that's releasing Tuesday--but everyone at the concert Thursday was able to buy it early! =)

Love is everywhere, I see it!
You are all that you can be,
go on and be it!
Life is perfect, I believe it!
Come and play the game with me!

John Denver

Hey, Mary Ann,
What's your game now?
Can anybody play?
