[Verse 1: Tamyra Gray & Kelly Clarkson]
I see how your tryna weasel your way in
Boy, I know how you maneuver
With your, your confusion
You tell me that I'm your only
And how bad that you want me
Then why are you so shady
If I'm supposed to be your lady?

[Pre-Chorus: Tamyra Gray & Kelly Clarkson]
Why should I believe anything you say?
And how could you shame me that way?
Tell me where, where did you get the nerve
To even think that you, you could play me wrong?

[Chorus: Tamyra Gray & Kelly Clarkson]
You thought we didn't know
You thought we were in the dark
But boy, your cover's blown
'Cause we both know now
You thought you had us fooled
At your beck and call
But now, who's the joke?
And look who's laughing now?

[Verse 2: Tamyra Gray & Kelly Clarkson, Both]
Now your trying to use us against one another
But it won't work
I see right though your game, boy
And I know exactly what I'm in for
You tried to deny all your actions
For once in your life, be a real man
At least give me the proper respect of the truth
I already know you did it

[Pre-Chorus: Kelly Clarkson & Tamyra Gray]
Why should I believe anything you say?
And how could you shame me that way?
Tell me where, where did you get the nerve
To even think that you, you could play me wrong?

[Chorus: Tamyra Gray & Kelly Clarkson]
You thought we didn't know
You thought we were in the dark
But boy, your cover's blown
'Cause we both know now
You thought you had us fooled
At your beck and call
But now, who's the joke?
And look who's laughing now?

[Bridge: Kelly Clarkson & Tamyra Gray]
I see right through you, baby
Trying to tell me you want me
Why don't you get it through your (Get it through your thick, thick head)?
'Cause I've seen this game before
And I'm not showing you the door so
Shut your mouth
I'm not trying to hear your lies
No, not again
Sorry you couldn't be a better man
No, no, no, no, no

[Chorus: Tamyra Gray & Kelly Clarkson]
You thought we didn't know
You thought we were in the dark
But boy, your cover's blown
'Cause we both know now
You thought you had us fooled
At your beck and call
But now, who's the joke?
And look who's laughing now?

[Outro: Kelly Clarkson & Tamyra Gray, Both]
Guess you thought wrong
Look's who laughing... now
[Laughter until fade]

Kelly Brianne Clarkson (born April 24, 1982) is an American singer, songwriter, and occasional actress. In 2002, she came to prominence after winning the first season of American Idol, and has since been established as “The Original American Idol”. Her debut single, “A Moment Like This”, topped the US Billboard Hot 100 and broke the record for the biggest jump to number one in the chart’s history.

Her first album, Thankful included the top ten single “Miss Independent”, which earned her first Grammy nomination. Her second album Breakaway produced the hit single “Since U Been Gone” which reached number two on the Hot 100 and was certified platinum by the RIAA.

Clarkson went in a different direction with her self-creatively-controlled third album, My December. It debuted at number two on the Billboard 200 and produced the top-ten single “Never Again.” Her fourth album, All I Ever Wanted debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. Lead single “My Life Would Suck Without You” re-broke the record for biggest jump to number one on the Hot 100, jumping 97-1 in its second week on the chart. The record still stands today.
