| Weird scenes are coming through the airwaves | |
| From a flickering tube | |
| An old film with an older theme | |
| And those actors could be us | |
| But the ending is good so I'm thinking | |
| "There's the rub" | |
| Later when we meet | |
| It's emotion going through the motions | |
| A kick to break up or a kiss to make up | |
| But then there'll be another scene | |
| Like the one yesterday | |
| When we say hello, we mean goodbye | |
| Feigning paradise, wanting to cry | |
| Love, all our passion I'm sorry to say | |
| Is part of the game we play | |
| So we're into action on cue | |
| And go spinning like a reel | |
| Summing up this relationship | |
| And the way I feel | |
| I think maybe we should go on out | |
| Into the moonlight, out of the spotlight | |
| And examine where we are and where we've been to | |
| Where we're going is down without a happy ending | |
| When we say hello we mean goodbye | |
| Feigning paradise, wanting to cry | |
| Love, all our passion I'm sorry to say | |
| Is part of the game we play |
