Battleship
I can't take all your games
the records you play
as a backing track
to the words you throw
that you can't take back
There's an outline
against the wall
hands over my head
I used to be so tall
what happened to her?
Tic Tac Toe
you sunk my battleship
don't matter the game
it's the same bullshit
looks good on you
but makes me look blue
Pretty in pink
cause I've been cryin'
my skin gets flushed
not a look I was tryin' for
so don't tell I look good
covered in your baggage
Don''t throw me a reference
to a song I don't know
I get it, you're so cool
and I'm ruining your flow
I can't keep a straight face no mo'e
Tic Tac Toe
you sunk my battleship
don't matter the game
it's the same bullshit
looks good on you
but makes me look blue
The game is over
pieces on the floor
I'm a sore loser
but you're no winner for sure
I can call it a tie
cause I don't really care
so goodbye
bye
bye
goodbye
