Verse 1 I was telling you a story ’Bout my job, for real You cracked a lousy joke Verse 2 I was cooking us a meal You said you’d do it better Turn it into a race Chorus Is it always just a game to you? Do you always gotta make it cute? Every time I try to keep it real You just laugh, that’s what you do Can you ever stay in the moment? Say something you actually mean? Or is it always just a game to you? Maybe act your age for once! Verse 3 We were watching a show I tried talking about it You just laughed it away Verse 4 My mama came around to help You said yours was more fun Like it had to be a contest Chorus Is it always just a game to you? Do you always gotta make it cute? Every time I try to keep it real You just laugh, that’s what you do Can you ever stay in the moment? Say something you actually mean? Or is it always just a game to you? Maybe act your age for once! Bridge I don’t mind a little playing But don’t play around with me Every time I try to mean it You just turn it into comedy If that’s your game, I’m leaving ’Cause then, baby — it’s game over Final Chorus Is it always just a game to you? Do you always gotta make it cute? Every time I try to keep it real You just laugh, that’s what you do Can you ever stay in the moment? Say something you actually mean? Or is it always just a game to you? Maybe act your age for once! Is it always a game to you? Can you act your age for once?
