I never thought U would be the one That I'd wanna run 2 I never thought U would be the one That would make me care And even tho U done me wrong 4 some strange reason I can't xplain I get happy knowing U phoned Cuz your voice could kill my every pain Why do we play this silly game? I never thought U would be the one That I'd wanna give 2 A diamond ring, anything that U ask me 2 But there U were, bragging 2 your friends Making up a story that's so lame That I was down 2 be your sugardaddy One way ticket to ghetto fame Why do we play this silly game? Every other night U weren't at home Out in the streets, just acting grown Never with a bodyguard or chaperone Then I hear a rumour that breaks my heart Instead of taking care of yourself U're tearing yourself apart Now why U wanna (Why U wanna, why U wanna ...) Now why U wanna go and do that, love? Why do we play this silly game? I never thought U would be the one (That I'd wanna run 2) that I'd wanna run 2 I never thought U'd be the one That would make me care No matter how far I run I'll never be the same (I'll never be the same) In the end, in the end, there's only us 2 blame Why do we play this ... Why do we play this silly ... Why do we play this silly game? Yeah Ooh-ooh Tell me why? (Tell me why?) Oh why? (Oh why?) Oh why - why? Why do we play this silly game?
