[Intro]
Yo, yo, yo-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
Yo, yo, yo-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
Yo, yo, yo-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
Yo, yo, yo-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
Yo, yo, yo-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
Yo, yo, yo-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
Yo, yo, yo-ooh-oh-ooh-oh
Yo, yo (Drop it)
[Verse 1]
Stay with me, but if you want to leave
Take your things, forget all about me
Tell me why you fail to realize
That you might not ever get another try
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, think about it before you leave
'Cause Bobby's got a brand new swing
And if you wanna do your own thing
I hear what you're sayin'
Two can play that game you're playin', yeah
[Chorus]
(Two can play that game)
Two can play that game
(Two can play that game)
Hey, oh, two can play that game
(Two can play that game)
Two
(Two can play that game)
[Verse 2]
Lately you've been acting mighty strange
To me it seems your attitude has changed
And suddenly you just don't seem the same
Instead of playing all those silly games
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, think, yeah, about it before you leave
'Cause Bobby's got a brand new swing
And if you wanna do your own thing
I hear what you're sayin'
Two can play that game you're playing, yeah
[Chorus]
(Two can play that game)
Two can play that game
(Two can play that game)
Hey, oh, two can play that game
(Two can play that game)
Two
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that)
[Verse 3]
Everybody wants to be a new jack
Flauntin' the styles that are Brown's kinda wild, now I'm back
But don't get me wrong, 'cause I was never gone
It was here all along, you see my flavor stand strong
And get ya, hit ya and get swifter
Ted, do they know where I'm comin' from?
Ayo, Ted, do they know where I'm comin' from?
Hey, yo, Ted, do they know where I'm comin' from?
Bust it, let's groove to the new type of style and
Get wild and loose with the darker the berry, the sweet juice
And when I burst, your only two words is "Hurt me, hurt me"
Just better stand still, I move at will, then I make my kill
Snatch, attacks your brain, goddamn, I'm insane
But I'll refrain from using a name
'Cause two can play that game
[Refrain]
Game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game, game
[Pre-Chorus]
Girl, think about it before you leave
'Cause Bobby's got a brand new swing
And if you wanna do your own thing
I hear what you're sayin'
Two can play that game you're playing, yeah
[Chorus]
(Two can play that game)
Two can play that game
(Two can play that game)
Hey, oh, two can play that game
(Two can play that game)
Two
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that game)
No, no-no-no-no, no-no-no, I said two
(Two can play that game)
Two
(Two can play that game)
Oh, oh, I said two
(Two can play that game)
[Bridge]
Two can play that game
No, no-no-no-no, no-no-no, it's mighty strange
That you've changed, you've changed
You've changed, changed for the worst, baby, yeah
What goes around comes around
It sure 'nough does
I ain't worried about it
You see what I'm sayin'? Yo, band, drop it, sing
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that game)
(Two can play that game)
Drop it
Drop it
[Instrumental Break]
[Outro]
