You showed me what to do  exactly what to do 
When I was in love with you 
You showed me many of things  plenty of hard times 
Then I got up on it but the hard way 
Out there to tax  you chose me to slay 
I saw what you did  uh huh  and said nothin' 
But watched  clocked  then I kept bluffin' 
And schemed to capture the skill of your rapture 
Master become the massa and kick at ya 
A plan  a new stand for this woman 
Made to be deadly just like the omen 
No more trippin', too strong to fall 
Shoe's on the other foot, shots are mine to call 
Little did you know what you were showing 
It hurted when you flirted, but I kept going 
Now the student is the teacher, you can't freak her 
Play the game of life, and I'll beat ya 

You showed me what to do, exactly what to do 
When I was in love with you 
Oh, it's true, I can do it, too 
You showed me what to say, exactly what to say 
In that very special way 
Oh, it's true, games were made for two 

You're fly, you live high off life riches 
Got three, four, and five fly bitches 
You dummy, you're so funny, leave me in stitches 
Honey, I command, I pull the switches 
Now I relieve the scratch when he itches 
I'm not the man, but I wear the britches 
So pitch your love and lies in the ditches 
P.S. hugs and kisses 

And when I tried it, I could see you fall 
And I decided it wasn't hard at all 

You showed me what to say, exactly what to say 
In that very special way 
Oh, it's true, games were made for two 
You taught it to me too, exactly what to do 
And now I do it well 
Oh, it's true, now you love me, too 

I tried it then I decided it's fun 
To catch the wave and ride it 
On from what you spawn 
Yo, I play like a rose, but I live like a thorn 
But anyhow, I do know now the tricks of the trade 
I ain't never gettin' played 
Say what you will, and do what you must 
It all fell apart when you betrayed my trust 
Don't worry, babe, you're still my main dish 
First on the menu but of a long list 
This ain't me, it's what you made me 
Now I'm slappin' you back with the same crap you gave me 
So get a grip, I'm hipper than hip 
And I'm sick and tired of your shit 
Let's make this clear, dear, I swear 
Never will I get dogged again, I'm outta here 

You showed me what to do, exactly what to do 
When I was in love with you 
Oh, it's true, I can do it too 
Oh, it's true
