I bet you think it’s stupid
This must all be so dumb to you
You show up late with boy on a leash playing games
Like I got nothing else to do
Like a Manhatten princess
In your New York City cloths
You think you me fooled, under your spell.
And that its only you who knows
Chorus
I do I do
Keep fucking around playing games and
youre gonna end up alone
Verse
When I first met you
I must admit it felt like love
Stopping by, staying late, at your place
Looking back it feels so dumb
Like a dumb little plaything
I would follow you around
While you were planning your next move on uptown
Did you think I wouldn’t find out
I knew I knew
Keep fucking around playing games and
youre gonna end up alone
Bridge
Maybe I just needed a way to hurt myself
And for me to not see it, I needed someone else
And when you can see how silly you look
Would you finally want a love that’s true
