[Intro: JC]
(Game over, game)
(The game is over)
(Game over, game)
(Game over, game)
Oh yeah, oh yeah

[Verse 1: JC]
Invincible
Is what you think you are
But that's so typical
Though you think that you're a star
You act like everyone (everyone)
Revolves around you
Baby, you drop the ball (drop the ball)
And now the game is through

[Pre-Chorus: JC & All]
'Cause you tried to play both sides
(Both sides)
You got caught up in your lies
(In your lies)
And now you're running
You're running out of time

[Chorus: All]
You played yourself
But did you, did you think
That you could really find love on someone else?
You're making moves
You're gonna lose
You know you played yourself
And now you're thinking, thinking you can get one by me
But you'll never win, but you'll never win
Try again 'cause the game is over

[Interlude]
The game is over

[Verse 2: Justin]
Take it personal
'Cause I did when you cheated on me
You may be beautiful
But there's more that the eye can see
You're so predictable
The way you calculate each move
Heads I win, tails you lose
Because you don't have the right to choose

[Pre-Chorus: Justin & All]
'Cause you tried to play both sides
(Both sides)
You got caught up in your lies
(In your lies)
And now you're running
You're running out of time, yeah-hey!

[Chorus: All & Justin]
You played yourself (ooh)
But did you, did you think
That you could really find love on someone else?
You're making moves
You're gonna lose
You know you played yourself
And now you're thinking, thinking you can get one by me
But you'll never win, but you'll never win
Try again 'cause the game is over (yeah)

[Bridge: JC with All, JC & Justin]
How could you think that you could do me like that?
Running behind my back
How could you do me like that? (do me like that?)
Now the game is over (oh)
How could you think that you could do me like that?
Do me like that?
Do me like that?

[Chorus: All, Justin & JC]
Played yourself! (oh!)
But did you, did you think
That you could really find love on someone else?
(Someone else)
You're making moves
You're gonna lose
You know you played yourself (played yourself)
And now you're thinking, thinking you can get one by me
(Thinking you can get one by me)
But you'll never win, but you'll never win
Try again 'cause the game is over (oh!)
You played yourself (oh-oh)
But did you, did you think
That you could really find love on someone else? (find love)
You're making moves
You're gonna lose (oh-oh-oh)
You know you played yourself (you played yourself)
And now you're thinking, thinking you can get one by me (by me)
But you'll never win, but you'll never win
Try again 'cause the game is over

[Outro]
Game over

*NSYNC (sometimes stylized as ★NSYNC, formally stylized as ‘N Sync) was an American boy band formed in Orlando, Florida in 1995 and launched in Germany by BMG Ariola Munich. The group consisted of Justin Timberlake, J.C. Chasez, Chris Kirkpatrick, Joey Fatone and Lance Bass.

After heavily publicized legal battles with their former manager Lou Pearlman and former record label Sony BMG, the group’s second album, No Strings Attached, sold over one million copies in one day and 2.42 million copies in one week.

In addition to a host of Grammy Award nominations, *NSYNC has performed at the World Series, the Super Bowl and the Olympic Games, and sang or recorded with Elton John, Lisa ‘Left Eye’ Lopes, Aerosmith, Mary J.
