Discover the story of the song > Games Without Frontiers – Peter Gabriel

The song talks about a group of people playing games without borders. They dress up in costumes and play silly games while hiding in treetops and whistling tunes. However, if looks could kill, they probably will, meaning that there is a sense of competition and aggression between them. The song suggests that these games are like a war without tears, and that there are no clear winners or losers.
