Comin' home late,
It seems you
Barely beat the sun
Tappin' my shoulder,
Thinkin' you gon'
Get you some
Smellin' like some fragrance
That I don't even wear
If you want some lovin',
I suggest you go back there
(Where you came from)
Day to day, with you
It's always something else
Workin' my nerve,
God knows that
I don't deserve
What you put me through,
'Cause I've been so true to you
For you to come at me,
With another lame excuse
(See I)

Heard it all before
(All of your lies,
All of your sweet talk,
Baby this,
Baby that)
But your lies ain't workin' now
Look who's hurtin' now
See I had to shut you down
I had to shut you down

Played the fool before
(I was your fool,
I believed in you,
Yes I did,
Yes I did)
But your lies ain't workin' now
Look who's hurtin' now
See I had to shut you down
I had to shut you down

What were you thinkin'
Bringing her into our home
In our bed, you must have
Fell and bumped your head
Messin' up my sheets,
And violating me
Got me 'bout to
Call my peeps,
And take it to the streets

Nothing you can do, and
There's nothing you can say
That can persuade me, to
Stay with you another day
You have crossed the line,
To the point of no return
What you do from here on out,
I am no longer concerned
(See I)

Heard it all before
(Let me explain baby,
Baby, it's not what you think,
That's what you said to me)
But your lies ain't workin' now
Look who's hurtin' now
See I had to shut you down
I had to shut you down

Played the fool before
(You were my boo,
I trusted you,
For way too long,
Way too long)
But your lies ain't workin' now
Look who's hurtin' now
See I had to shut you down
I had to shut you down

Ooh, used to hang on
To your every word
But the more you lied
To me the more I hurt
The things you used to
Say would sound so sweet
I'm naive, good to believe

Heard it all before
(I was at work, it
Wasn't my car you saw)
(Baby, I swear it wasn't me)
But your lies ain't workin' now
Look who's hurtin' now
See I had to shut you down
I had to shut you down

Played the fool before
(You were my boo,
I trusted you,
For way too long,
Way too long)
But your lies ain't workin' now
Look who's hurtin' now
See I had to shut you down
I had to shut you down
