I guess I must be getting old
I can’t follow what’s going on
Man’s so smart how come we can’t
Find ways to get along
Secret games of power
Played behind sacred walls
Don’t count on anybody
To catch you when you fall
You can only play the invisible game
When you’re ready to accept one thing
There is nothing to know or find
And absolutely nothing to believe in
Playing the invisible game you’ll find
The ones that you are playing with
Will play against you the very next time
And that’s the time they will do you in
We can never save
The ones that are craving to die
Believing there’s a better life
In the sweet by and by
We don’t know who the enemy is
Let alone what he wants
Everybody needs somebody to hate
Even more than someone to love
Chorus:
Invisible game, invisible game
There’s an invisible game going on
Nobody knows the rules
It’s a little game, it’s a little game
Some got something to sell
Some got nothing to lose
