::Heard It All Before
{Baby} Uh-uh
{Let me explain to you, I'm sayin'}
What you sayin'
{It's not even like that}
It wasn't like that, but I saw you
{Baby, I don't love her}
You don't love me
You know what I don't even want to talk to you
{She don't mean nothin' to me}
I don't wanna see your face
{She was just talkin'}
I just want to see you walkin' through that door
{Baby, don't}
There ain't nothin' else to say
{Why we gotta do it like this}
Peace
{Baby, damn}
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
So 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 been so true to you
For you to come at me with another lame excuse, see I
Heard it all before (Heard it all before), all of your lies
All of your sweet talk, baby this, baby that
But your lies ain't workin' now (Now)
Look who's hurtin' now (Look who's hurtin' now)
See, I had to shut you down (Down)
I had to shut you down
Played the fool before (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 (Your lies ain't workin' now)
Look who's hurtin' now (Look who's hurtin' now)
See, I had to shut you down (Down)
I had to shut you down
What were you thinkin' bringin' her into our home
In our bed, you must have fell and bumped your head
Messin' up my sheets (Messin' up my sheets ) and violatin'me (Violatin'
me)
Got me 'bout to call my peeps and take it to the streets
Nothin' you can do and there's nothing you can say (You can say)
That could persuade me to stay with you another day
You have crossed the line (Mmm) to the point of no return (Mmm)
What you do from here on out, I am no longer concerned, see I
Heard it all before (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 (Now)
Look who's hurtin' now (Now)
See, I had to shut you down (Had to shut you down)
I had to shut you down (Down)
Played the fool before (Played the fool before), you had a good game
I must admit, I was it (I was it), but now it's over
But your lies ain't workin' now (Now)
Look who's hurtin' now (Look who's hurtin' now)
See, I had to shut you down (Down)
I had to shut you down (Ooh)
Use to hang on to your every word (Every word)
But the more you lied to me the more I hurt (Mmm...)
The things you used to say would sound so sweet {Sound so sweet}
I was naive (I was naive ), quick 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 (Your lies ain't workin' now)
Look who's hurtin' now (Look who's hurtin' now)
See, I had to shut you down (Down)
I had to shut you down (Down)
Played the fool before (Played the fool before), you were my boo
I trusted you for way too long, way too long (Way too long)
But your lies ain't workin' now (But your lies ain't workin' now)
Look who's hurtin' now (Now)
See, I had to shut you down
I had to shut you down
Heard it all before, you know you messed up (You gotta know you messed up)
You got to go now, say what you want, mmm, hmm (Say what you want)
But your lies ain't workin' now (Your lies ain't workin')
Look who's hurtin' now (Look who's hurtin')
See, I had to shut you down (Down)
I had to shut you down (Down-down-down)
Played the fool before (Played the fool), I done change the locks on the
door (Yes, I did)
And you ain't welcome no more (You ain't welcome no more)
But your lies ain't workin' now (Now)
Look who's hurtin' now (Look who's hurtin' now)
See, I had to shut you down (Down-down-down)
I had to shut you down
See, I heard it all before
