Lyrics
TWO CAN PLAY THAT GAME
Words & Music ©2003 Gift of Music (ASCAP); Used By Permission.
In a crime of passion under thin disguise
When your blind reaction is denial,
Those unlikely stories -- twisted alibis --
Multiply before you realize.
All that goes down comes back around,
And you'll be found out in time.
What's there to explain when clearly you're to blame?
Your actions make things plain to me.
Words will be in vain, you're not the least ashamed;
Well, two can play that game, you'll see!
With your tracks well-covered you can lose your way,
Stab the backs of lovers by mistake.
You'd sustain the warfare were the tables turned,
And complain it's more than you deserve.
All that goes down comes back around;
Your secret's bound to get heard.
What's there to explain when clearly you're to blame?
Your actions make things plain to me.
Words will be in vain, you're not the least ashamed;
Well, two can play that game, you'll see!
You'll see; you'll see!
