[Verse 1] Ive been crying tears, but They aint mine for too long Too long Been writing bad checks from an account Thats been closed all along [Chorus] Please excuse me if Im out of style But I just havent played this game in a while And I wouldnt want these clumsy lips Getting in the way of your good time [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] Just to be frank, for a second, I did think That I might, mightve loved you right Got me all mixed up in your blue eyes Although I tried with all my might [Chorus] Oh, please excuse me, but its you to blame Saying you dont happen to feel the same I know that I aint much to write home about But I didnt come to play this game [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Now you seem to prefer a certain kind of girl Whos adept at breaking hearts And I must confess I couldnt be less I wouldnt know right where to start [Chorus] Please excuse me if Im out of line When I place bets on your breaking mine But Ill be cashing in as youre stumbling Out the door wasting your last dime Please excuse me if Im out of style But I just havent played this game in a while And Ill be cashing in as youre stumbling Out the door wasting your last dime
excuse, cashing, please, stumbling, wasting
