Mariah Carey - Thanx 4 Nothin' Lyrics

Artist: Mariah Carey

Album: E=MC2

Genre: Pop

  • Songwriters: Mariah Carey, Jermaine Dupri, Manuel Lonnie Seal

Uh, this is dedicated to all the ladies out there
That's tired of getting played, you know?

Y'all know what this is
(Y'all know what this is)
So so def
(I ain't even gotta say it)
And â€~your girl' mean me
Thanks for nothing, no-no-nothing
You were just playing a game

(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Thanks for nothing
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)
You were just playing a game

I can't even know what to say, I've been hurt, I've been played
And I'm so ashamed
I can't even cry, it's that deep, you just lie and you cheat
Like it's nothing

See you said that you loved me too and so I trusted you
But I guess that subconsciously I knew
But I didn't want to face the truth that I was only being used
And you was just fronting, ay boy thanks for nothing

I never knew enough about you babe
And I guess I only have myself to blame
But now I'm broken hearted and shattering
You were just playing a game

Nothing anyone could do to convince me babe
I was living in a lie, just a masquerade
Now I only know that I'll never be the same
But you were just playing a game

(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
Thanks for nothing
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)
You were just playing a game

Every day and every night I stay by the phone
Never go no place, so just in case you call I'll be home
Seems like all I do is think about our pseudo-romance
While you're somewhere burning diesel in the streets having laughs

Somebody say you know what I'm going through
You were left with nothing too
Much you can't count on one hand singing, 3, 4, 5, 6

7 days a week you're drowning in tears
He was so insincere
Now you laying up in bed every night singing
Ay boy thanks for nothing

I never knew enough about you babe
And I guess I only have myself to blame
Now I'm broken hearted and shattering
You were just playing a game

No, nothing anyone can do to convince me babe
I was living in a lie, just a masquerade
Now I only know that I'll never be the same
But you were just playing a game

(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
So thanks for nothing!
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh)
(Oh oh oh oh oh oh)
You was just fronting
So thanks for nothing!
