fair game

you terrify me

'cause you're a man

you're not a boy

you got some power

and i can't treat you like a toy

you're the road less travelled by a little girl

you disregard the mess while i try to control the world

don't leave me

stay here and frighten me

don't leave me

come now enlighten me

give me all you got

give me your wallet and your watch

give me your first-born

give me the rainbow and the. so

go and challenge me

take the reins and see

watch me squirm

baby

but you are just what i need

and i've never played a fair game

i've always had the upper hand

but what good is intellect and airplay

if i can't respect any man?

yeah

i want to play a fair game

yeah

i want to play a fair game

you terrify me

we've still not kissed

and yet i've cried

you got too close

and i pushed and pushed hoping you'd bite

so

i could run

run and that i did but through the dust

you saw those teeth marks

they weren't all yours

you had been thrust into a history

that had not worked for me

into a history

from which i could not flee

so

go on shake me

shake until i give it up

wearing me down

baby

i know that we could make some love

so

go and challenge me

take the reins and see

watch me squirm

baby

but you are just what i need

and i've never played a fair game

i've always had the upper hand

but what good is intellect and airplay

if i can't respect any man?

yeah

i want to play a fair game

yeah

i want to play a fair game

and i've never played a fair game

i've always had the upper hand

but what good is intellect and airplay

if i can't respect any man?

i want to play a fair game

oh

i've never played a fair game

i've always had the upper hand

but what good is intellect and airplay

if i can't respect any man?

i want to play a fair game

i want to play a fair game
