Isn't That The Guy
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Isn't that the guy you were seein' last summer?
Baby, don't deny it, I can tell he's your lover
'Cause I caught you in a lie and I saw that little number
When you thought I wasn't looking, you were eyein' each other.
Isn't that the guy that you said you were leavin'?
When you looked me in the eye and you had me believin'
Everything you said, girl, I just didn't see it
Now you're playing with my head, baby, I don't need it.
Isn't that the guy that you told me you were over with;
Thinking that you'd get by without me knowing it?
Do you think I'm blind? And all the time you were fakin',
It's blowing my mind, and I just can't take it no more
(You say) you say, (you say) you say
(You say) you say, (you say) you say
(You say) you say, (you say) you say
(You say) you say, (you say) no way!
Tryin' to be cool with this goin' on in front of me;
Tryin' not to be the fool I don't wanna be
Was he on your mind every time you were lovin' me?
Don't prentend you don't know he
Was here to keep you company
Isn't that the guy you were seein' last summer, baby?
Baby, don't deny it, I can tell he's your lover
'Cause I caught you in a lie and I saw that little number
When you thought I wasn't looking
You were eyein' each other. Oh, yeah
(You say) you say, (you say) you say
(You say) you say, (you say) you say,
(You say) you say, (you say) you say
(You say) you say, (you say) no way!
Go on and say it (say it). You made me play it
Right in my face, it was (face it was) a cold-hearted embrace
All I can do is (do is) stand there and take it (take it)
I bought every single lie you were sellin'
How did he know if you didn't tell him?
(Light up the night)
(I saw the light)
(Oh)
(You know that ain't right)
(Light up the night) yeah!
(You know that ain't right) you know that ain't right.
(Oh) I didn't see it comin'.
(I saw the light) I saw the light
(Light up the night) oooh!
(I saw the light) I saw the light
(Oh) I know that he's the one
(You know that ain't right)
You know that ain't right, baby
(Light up the night) oooh!
(I saw the light) I saw the light
(Oh) yeah!
(You know that ain't right)
You know that ain't right, baby
