A list (Child’s play)

A list of all you do 
Cuz I forgot 
all the things you bought 
Guess J Lo got it wrong 
throw it in my face 
like a lemon meringue pie 
but I won’t break 
like a clown 
or a Ferris wheel broke down 
too much chewing gum in the gears 
you say you love me 
and take it back 
I can prove it 
I have a list 
I kept track 
Cuz my love is not child’s play 
but you gamble it anyway 
I don’t just say it 
I mean it
like a kid out at recess
there is no going back
