You said you wanna play your game

You dealt me in, said I’d pick it up, it’s all the same

Don’t follow all the rules

I know you don’t, you change day by day, it hardly seems that fair

How can anybody understand?

How can anybody win?

8 points later, thought it was about time, we hit the finish line

But 8 points later, I wasn’t winning at all, I was just further behind

You played your hand, I showed my cards

I took my tiles right from your heart

I laid them down before your eyes

Game over, blow the whistle, we’re out of time

C’mon baby, it’s your turn, your time to play

What are you scared of, why do you keep running away

C’mon just show your hand

Do you even wanna play, it was your idea, but you hardly seem to care

Why do you expect me to want to stay?

How can anybody win?

8 points later, thought it was about time, we hit the finish line

8 points later, I wasn’t winning at all, I was just further behind

You played your hand, I showed my cards

I took my tiles right from your heart

I laid them down before your eyes

Game over, blow the whistle, we’re out of time

You’re just using me for fun, to take the win, and then we’re done

I thought I meant a little more, don’t wanna play no more

C’mon boy, tag me out

8 points later

8 points later

8 points later

8 points later

8 points later, I thought it was about time, we hit the finish line

8 points later, I wasn’t winning at all, I was just further behind

You played your hand, I showed my cards

I took my tiles right from my heart

I laid them down before your eyes

Game over, blow the whistle, we’re out of time
