Lyrics[]
[Intro]
One more game, it's time to play
Play with me (One more game)
Just one more game, it's time to play
Come play my way
[Verse 1]
I'm no more Mrs. Nice Girl, no playing home ground
I'm not the same girl, you never rocked my world
You used me, tried to abuse me
The fame, the life, the fantasy, now back to reality
(You're dramatic) The truth that lies can't hide
I'm not by your side, I'll let you drown in your drama
Run to your mama, see if she can save you
When I'm not around, you're so dramatic
[Chorus]
No, no, no, no, you're not the one I thought you were
Now there's another ringing my bell
I'm under his spell, you're too dramatic
Understand it's over
[Verse 2]
Baby, fuck you (Ooh)
The things you did, and never thought I'd get a clue
Yeah, you wanted me to be that faithful to you
Not let nobody's body touch my body in positions that we only knew (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
Now I'm gonna give him what he wants and more
Do all those explicit things that I told you "no"
Places you couldn't go, you know where I'm talking
You are too dramatic
[Chorus]
No, no, no, no, you're not the one I thought you were
Now there's another ringing my bell
I'm under his spell, you're too dramatic
Understand it's over
[Bridge]
Ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Come and play, you wanna play?
Come play with me
[Chorus]
You're not the one I thought you were
Now there's another ringing my bell
I'm under his spell, you're too dramatic
Understand it's over
You're not the one I thought you were
Now there's another ringing my bell
I'm under his spell, you're too dramatic
Understand it's over
You're too dramatic

Run to your mama
See if she can save you
When I'm not around you're so dramatic

Now there's another ringing my bell
I'm under his spell
You're too dramatic
Understand it's over
