Chess

You look at me like I am a child
You speak to me but you’re telling me lies
Would it make a difference if I was the same sex
Would it make it better ‘cause I’ve heard it all before?
You’re king, I'm queen and we’re going to war

I’ve been working hard for so damn long
But you only want the pretty ones
Innocent and blind
You like them young

You just wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
But I'm playing with you

You just wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
But I'm playing with you

Don’t fuck with me, I'm not like the rest
And I know you’re weak and your mind is possessed
I don’t want the lime light, I just want a fair fight
Being born a woman makes it harder than you know
So I'm king, you’re queen and we’re going to war

I’ve been working hard for so damn long
But you only want the pretty ones
Innocent and blind
You like them young

You just wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
But I'm playing with you

You just wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
But I'm playing with you

You don’t play fair
Checkmate, you don’t care
Stuck inside this square
There’s no getting through to you

‘Cause you’re not fair
Checkmate, you don’t care
Stuck inside this square
There’s no getting through to you

Chess
You wanna play chess
You wanna play chess
But I'm playing with you

‘Cause you’re not fair (chess)
Checkmate, you don’t care (you wanna play chess)
Stuck inside this square (you wanna play chess)
There’s no getting through to you (but I'm playing with you)
