I guess you're having a party tonight
I wasn't invited, but that's alright
I heard about it anyway
I might stop by, but i doubt i'll stay
Cause i can't eat
And i'm having trouble getting to sleep
And i'm seeing double
It's no mystery and
What do you think's going on with me

And i can't fully understand
How you got the upper hand
I guess you got control of me
You played me like the lottery

I pulled into your yard last night
You saw my car you turned out the lights
It doesn't matter anyway
I wasn't even gonna stay
Well, i just stopped by to drop off these
Pictures of my broken knees
I guess you won't be needing these

And i can't fully understand
How you got the upper hand
I guess you got control of me
You played me like the lottery

I followed you to where you were
And now i feel like some kind of jerk
Cause you turned around and saw me there
And all i did was stand and stare
You probably think i'm just a pest
Hanging around your circulation desk
I guess i'll go on home
Where once again i can be alone

And i can't fully understand
How you got the upper hand
I guess you got control of me
You played me like the lottery
