[English]

You thought you had me, didn't you?

When you lied to my face I could see the truth

Every step of the way, I knew

How you fooled me, boo

Guess you didn't know that

You were my favorite entertainer

I'd watch you, I'd laugh, I would fuck with you

Don't you take me for a fool

In this game, I own the rules

You were my favorite entertainer

I'd watch you, I'd laugh, I would fake it too

Don't you take me for a fool

I'ma show you a thing or two

Never seen me coming

I'll turn you down

When you need me the most

I will turn you

When you need me the most

I will turn you down

Never seen me coming

I will turn you down

When you need me the most

I will turn you

When you need me the most

I will turn you down

Thought that you were smarter

I'm ashamed for you

I knew it right away when you stopped loving me

It happened when your touch wasn't enough for me

Thought that you should know that

You were my favorite entertainer

I'd watch you, I'd laugh, I would fuck with you

Don't you play me for a fool

In this game I own the rules

You were my favorite entertainer

I'd watch you, I'd laugh, I would fake it too

Don't you play me for a fool

I'ma show you a thing or two

Never seen me coming

I will turn you down

When you need me the most

I will turn you

When you need me the most

I will turn you down

Never seen me coming

I will turn you down

When you need me the most

I will turn you

When you need me the most

I will turn you down

Know it's harder to take

But let's face it

No one's playing no games

'Cause that's basic

I'm being straight up

I know a fake love when I see it anyway

I'ma turn you down, when you need me anyway

Anyway

Anyway (I know you need me the most)

Never seen me coming

I will turn you down

When you need me the most

I will turn you

When you need me the most

I will turn you down

Never seen me coming

I will turn you down

When you need me the most

I will turn you

When you need me the most

I will turn you down

I know you need me the most

The most

The most (one more time)
