FAIR GAME

You terrify me, cuz you’re a man, you’re not a boy
You got some power, and I can’t treat you like a toy
You’re the road less travelled by a little girl
You disregard the mess while I try to control the world
Don’t leave me, stay here and frighten me
Don’t leave [bad word] now enlighten me
Give me all you got, give me your wallet and your watch
Give me your first-born, give me the rainbow and the…

So go and challenge me, take the reigns and see
Watch me squirm baby, but you are just what I need

And I’ve never played a fair game
I’ve always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and therapy/airplay
If I can’t respect any man
Oh I want to play a fair game
Yeah I want to play a fair game

You terrify me, we’ve still not kissed and yet I’ve cried
You got too close and I pushed and pushed hoping you’d bite
So I [bad word]  run and that I did but through the dust
You saw those teeth marks, they weren’t all yours you had been [bad word] Into a history, that had not worked for me
Into a history, from which I could not flee
So go on shake me, shake until I give it up
Wearing me down baby, I know that we could make some love

So go and challenge me, take the reigns and see
Watch me squirm baby, but you are just what I need

And I’ve never played a fair game
I’ve always had the upper hand
But what good is intellect and therapy/airplay
If I can’t respect any man
I want to play a fair game
I want to play a fair game
