Back in the day, THE SPINNERS  had a song called "Games People Play"; (aka: "They Just Can't Stop It (The Games People Play)". It began with a piano/trumpet lead-in to the vocal which went:

"Can't get no rest, don't know how I work all day.

When will I learn? memories get in the way.

I walk around... can't hear a sound - folks talking loud... but I

Don't see at all. I gotta get away, gotta get away, I don't

Know where to go, it's hopeless so, I guess I'll leave it alone...."

Then comes a second verse, which leads to the Bridge:

"GAMES PEOPLE PLAY, NIGHT OR DAY THEY'RE JUST NOT MATCHIN',

WHAT THEY SHOULD DO, KEEPS ME FEELIN' BLUE,

BEEN DOWN TOO LONG, RIGHT WRONG I JUST CAN'Y STOP IT

SPENDIN' ALL DAY, THINKING JUST OF YOU...."

As you can probably tell, this was one of my favorite songs of all time.  GTT
