Play us like pawns and relentlessly confined
Into living up to gender roles and having absent minds
Don't you think it's funny how they tell us how to live
Don't you think it's funny how we're all delinquent kids
Like hush now, don't say, don't say
Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word
Throw on a jersey, no one gets hurt
Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes
Play our little game, play our little game
Bounded all thoughts and corrected common sense
You're raising suicidals with your predetermined titles
Like a mess, distressed, I am unimpressed
Your excess, a dress, is all you'll ever be
Gender roles impose control and deceive progressive times
Welcome to the land of the broken mind
Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word
Throw on a jersey, no one gets hurt
Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes
Play our little game, play our little game
Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word
Throw on a jersey, no one gets hurt
Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes
Play our little game, play our little game
We feign opulence just to get by
Put on false confidence just to feel alive
They can't hurt me anymore
There's nothing left to break of me
There's nothing left to take from me
'Cause baby it's easy to fake a smile
When you've been doing it for a while
Baby, it's easy to fake a smile
When you've been doing it for a while
Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word
Throw on a jersey, no one gets hurt
Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes
Play our little game, play our little game
Hush boy, oh hush boy, don't say a word
Throw on a jersey, no one gets hurt
Hush girl, oh hush girl, just bat your eyes
Play our little game, play our little game
Hush boy, oh hush boy
Hush girl, oh hush girl
Play our little game
Play our little game
Play our little game
Play our little game
Play our little game
Won't you play with me?
