Lyrics
VERSE
In your crib, at ten months old
your momma played with you
what most adults know well ?
a game called peek-a-boo
She?d be there, then be gone
Oh what?s a babe to do
when people come and go
playin? peek-a-boo
CHORUS
The world can seem so crazy
and life can become hazy
and truth can run on time
and friends turn on a dime
when those we love say boo
and leave us like they do
we are, oh my baby
just playin? peek-a-boo
VERSE
You were dealt your hands,
you learned the game real quick,
when to show your self,
when hiding was the trick.
Running up the ante
you covered, wanted more,
no longer saw yourself
what the game is really for...
AMENDED CHORUS
The world can seem so crazy
and life can become hazy
and truth can run on time
and friends turn on a dime
and when you can?t see you
you can wonder who
you are, oh my baby
just playin? peek-a-boo
BRIDGE
Time will lose, you?ll win
The game?s designed to end.
A full house waits for you
to see what?s true again
'cause people may play games
but babe, that?s only half...
The whole point is to play
like a child and have some laughs.
AMENDED CHORUS
The world can seem so crazy
and life can become hazy
and truth can run on time
and friends turn on a dime
but when you look at you
you won't wonder who
you are, oh my baby
just playin? peek-a-boo
TAG
Seems crazy, I know baby...
but it?s all just peek-a-boo.
Peek-a-boo!
(Baby laughs)
