Stock Music track: Playing Dumb

This song was my reaction to a string of boys that I casually dated that all turned out to "play" me for one reason or another. This was my response that I'm not gonna put up with that kind of treatment and be one of those girls you can get away with. The lyrics state that I'm not the girl who plays back, I don't play games. Be real with me or I'm walking out the door. Also available as an instrumental version.

Lyrics: You swear you're a good, good boy
But you're no good to me
You had me so sure, sure boy
You got me stuck in between

It was something I read, read boy
Something I could not ignore
Or it was something you said, said boy
You just said she's a sweet girl

Chorus:
You thought that you won me
But you lost me in the end
You played with the wrong girl
Cause I'm not one to play back
I know what you're doing
You're wasting my time, hanging around just for fun
You should know I'm not playing dumb for anyone
Playing dumb

You can't just keep me around, round boy
I won't be stringing along
So save all your charm, charm boy
Cause I've already moved on

And while you take your precious time
To make up your mind
You think I'm just standing by?

Chorus x 2
