Open up your mind and let me step inside
Rest your weary head and let your heart decide
It's so easy when you know the rules
It's so easy all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game, everybody play the game of love- ooh yeah

When you're feeling down and your resistance is low
Light another cigarette and let yourself go
This is your life, don't play hard to get
It's a free world, all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game, yeah, everybody play the game of love- ooh yeah

My game of love has just begun
Love runs from my head down to my toes
My love is pumping through my veins- play the game
Driving me insane
Come come come come come- play the game- play the game
Play the game- play the game- play the game
Everybody play the game of love

This is your life, don't play hard to get
It's a free free world, all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game, yeah, play the game of love
Your life- don't play hard to get
It's a free free world, all you have to do is fall in love
Play the game yeah, everybody play the game of love

Deosebit de melodioasa si luminoasa, aceasta piesa este prima marturie a schimbarii de stil din anii '80, The Game fiind si intaiul album pe care Queen au folosit sintetizatoare. Textul este o invitatie de a patrunde in spatiul mental al iubirii ("open up your mind and let me step inside", "let your heart decide"), lasand in urma greutatile si durerea ("when you're feeling down and your resistance is low light another cigarette and let yourself go"). Viata si iubirea sunt un joc care trebuie jucat cu zambetul pe buze si fara dorinta expresa de a castiga ("don't play hard to get"). Puterea iubirii este atat de mare, incat schimba complet viata si gandirea omului, pulsand in toata fiinta lui si dandu-i senzatia ca innebuneste de fericire sub impulsul unui sentiment necunoscut ("my game of love has just begun, love runs from my head down to my toes, my love is pumping through my veins driving me insane").
