Why do we play this silly game?
Why do we play this silly game?
That I'd wanna run to
I'll never be the same
Every other night you weren't at home
That would make me care
I never thought you'd be the one
Why? Why? Why?
I never thought you would be the one
And even though you done me wrong
Why do we play this silly game?
Instead of takin' care of yourself, you're tearin' yourself apart
Now why you wanna? Why you wanna? Why you wanna?
That I was down to be your sugar daddy
'Cuz your voice could cure my every pain
For some strange reason I can't explain
Oh, tell me why?
Why do we play this silly game?
Now why you wanna go and do that, love?
Never with a bodyguard or chaperon
That I'd wanna give to
One way ticket to get a fame
But there you were, braggin' to your friend
Oh why? Oh why?
I never thought you would be the one
There's only us to blame
I never thought you would be the one
Out in the streets, just acting grown
Why do we play this?
No matter how far I'd run
A diamond ring, anything that you asked me to
Why do we play this silly game?
I get happy knowin' you phoned
In the end, in the end
Why do we play this silly?
That would make me care
Then I hear a rumor that breaks my heart
Makin' up a story that's so lame
