Lyrics

(Uh, this is dedicated to all the ladies out there) (That's tired of getting played, you know?) Y'all know what this is (Y'all know what this is) So So Def (I ain't even gotta say it) And your girl, Mimi Thanx 4 nothin' (No, no, nothin') You were just playing a game (MC) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Oh) Thanx 4 nothin' Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (Yeah) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (You know the feeling) You were just playin' a game I can't even know what to say I've been hurt, I've been played And I'm so ashamed I can't even cry, it's that deep You just lie and you cheat Like it's nothin' (nothin') See, you said that you loved me too And so I trusted you But I guess that subconsciously I knew But I didn't wanna face the truth (uh) That I was only being used (uh-huh) And you were just frontin' Hey boy, thanx 4 nothin' (say what?) I never knew enough about you, babe And I guess I only have myself to blame Now I'm broken-hearted and shattering But you were just playin' a game Nothin' anyone could do to convince me, babe I was living in a lie, just a masquerade Now I only know that I'll never be the same But you were just playin' a game (sing with me) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (uh-huh) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Thanx 4 nothin' (uh-huh) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (uh-huh) You were just playin' a game Every day and every night I stay by the phone (Uh-huh) Never go no place, so just in case you call, I'll be home (Oh) Seems like all I do is think about our pseudo romance While you're somewhere burnin' diesel in the streets havin' laughs Somebody say you know what I'm going through You've been left with nothin' Too much you can't count on one hand (uh-huh) Sing it: three, four, five, six Seven days a week, you're drowning in tears (oh) He was so insincere Now you're laying up in bed every night singing Hey boy, thanx 4 nothin' (yup) I never knew enough about you, babe (uh-uh) And I guess I only have myself to blame Now I'm broken-hearted and shattering But you were just playing a game No, nothin' (yeah) Anyone could do to convince me, babe I was living in a lie, just a masquerade Now I only know that I'll never be the same But you were just playing a game Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (uh-huh) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh So thanx 4 nothin' (uh huh) Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh You were just frontin' (oh) So thanx 4 nothin'
