  • Let's play musical chairs, one of my favorite games
    Especially now that you and I have traded place
    You walk around in shoes that don't fit for a change
    There is a way for you to win this race

    Crisscross, you turn your shirt inside out
    You like to think I can't figure you out, but the tables have turned
    What goes around comes around, you're about to get burned
    Flip the script, you're checking in, I'm checking you out

    You're just too sweet 'til you get on my nerves and hurt like cavity
    You left a bad taste in my mouth, my Sour Patch Kid
    You and me, it's no mystery, no magic trick
    Let me hear this broken record again, just press repeat

    I can be your new favorite waste of time, and you'll be mine
    All I want is your attention, it's all the same thing
    Are you in? What's it gonna be?
    Don't roll with the punches, make it hard for me, baby

    Drop you like a needle on the record, scratch my itch
    Watch you walk in circles, hit the beat
    Drop you like a needle on the record, flip my switch
    Go around in circles, hit the beat

    Drop you like a needle on the record, scratch my itch
    Watch you walk in circles, hit the beat
    Drop you like a needle on the record, flip my switch
    Go around in circles, hit the beat

    Drop you like a needle on the record, scratch my itch
    Watch you walk in circles hit the beat
    Drop you like a needle on the record, flip my switch
    Go around in circles, hit the beat

    Let's play musical chairs, one of my favorite games
    Especially now that you and I have traded place
    You walk around in shoes that don't fit for a change
    There is a way for you to win this race

    Crisscross, you turn your shirt inside out
    You like to think I can't figure you out, but the tables have turned
    What goes around comes around, you're about to get burned
    Flip the script, you're checking in, I'm checking you out

    You're just too sweet 'til you get on my nerves and hurt like cavity
    You left a bad taste in my mouth, my Sour Patch Kid
    You and me, it's no mystery, no magic trick
    Let me hear this broken record again, just press repeat

    I can be your new favorite waste of time, and you'll be mine
    All I want is your attention, it's all the same thing

    Drop you like a needle on the record, flip my switch

    Drop you like a needle on the record, scratch my itch
    Watch you walk in circles hit the beat
    Drop you like a needle on the record, flip my switch
    Go around in circles, hit the beat

    Drop you like a needle on the record, scratch my itch
    Watch you walk in circles, hit the beat
    Drop you like a needle on the record, flip my switch
    Go around in circles, hit the beat Writer/s: Joel Zimmerman, Sofi Toufa
