Play Dumb
Sia Lyrics

I stayed too long, you've been kissing on everyone
I remained in this relationship for too long, while you were being unfaithful and kissing other people.

You've played my love, so I'll play you like a kick drum
You have betrayed my love and trust, so now I will treat you coldly and with indifference.

I'm moving on 'cause I love myself too much
I am choosing to move forward with my life because I value and prioritize my own well-being.

To play this dumb, put my money where my mouth's at (kiss)
I refuse to act naive or foolish anymore, and I am willing to back up my words with actions.

Check your DMs every PM and I'm seeing all your eloquence
I monitor your direct messages every evening and witness all the smooth talking and empty promises you make to others.

You put my money where your mouth is (kiss)
You demonstrate your intentions through your actions, just as you promised (with a kiss).

I check your texts, I see the ex, you selling sex, you're the ventriloquist
I examine your text messages and discover you are engaging with your ex and involved in sexual activities, which shows you are the one controlling the situation.

You put my money where her mouth is (kiss)
You invest your resources and attention on someone else, fulfilling their desires (with a kiss).

Now I see lipstick on your collar, got a dollar every time I wept
I notice evidence of your infidelity, represented by the lipstick stains on your clothing, and I have cried so much over it.

Wondering when she put her mouth there (kiss)
I am left wondering when exactly she engaged in intimate acts with you (with a kiss).

I don't wanna take a bet on any man who can't show up for it
I refuse to place my trust in a man who is unreliable and fails to fulfill his commitments.

I put my money where my mouth's at (kiss)
I back up my words with actions and invest my resources where I claim I will (with a kiss).

If this is love, collect ya stuff, I've had enough, I want you out the door
If this is what you consider love, then pack up your belongings because I have reached my limit and no longer want you in my life.

You put my money where her mouth was (kiss) (peace)
You have chosen to invest your resources in another person, fulfilling their desires, and now I am bidding you farewell (with a kiss and peace).

If this is love, I'll take my stuff, I'm giving up on us, I'm giving up
If this is your idea of love, then I will take my belongings and surrender on our relationship. I am giving up.

I put my money where my mouth's at (kiss)
I back up my claims and promises with concrete actions (with a kiss).

I put my money where my mouth's at (kiss)
I demonstrate my commitment and sincerity by investing my resources where I say I will (with a kiss).

I put my money where my mouth's at (kiss)
I follow through on my words with action and monetary investments (with a kiss).

I put my money where my mouth's at (kiss)
I back up my statements and promises with tangible actions and financial contributions (with a kiss).

I love myself too much to play this dumb (dumb)
I have a deep self-love and respect, which prevents me from continuing to act naive or foolish (dumb).

I like myself too much to keep these goddamn blinders on
I have such a strong sense of self-esteem that I refuse to remain ignorant or turn a blind eye to the truth.

I love myself too much to play this dumb (dumb)
I care for and value myself so greatly that I am unwilling to continue acting naive or foolish (dumb).

I love myself too much to play this dumb (peace)
I have such a profound love and respect for myself that I refuse to engage in further acts of naivety or foolishness (peace).
