Roll Over Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You've been the same
From day one
Don't think you'll ever change
I have to laugh
Every time you screw it up
Funny how I take the blame
Why is everything designed
To try and get a rise out of me
Can't believe you never guessed
Only playing second best to ya
You oughta know I'm in control
[Chorus]
I ain't gonna just roll over
You think that I'm here to please ya
But you don't even know, oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
[Verse 2]
You're so predictable
Don't open your mouth
'Cos everyday you're outta here
So best of luck
You think you're bailing out
You know you never leave
'Cos I got you by the time
That it takes to realise the truth
I'm using you
And the more you think you've won
The stronger I become
You wanna know, I'm in control
You've been the same
From day one
Don't think you'll ever change
I have to laugh
Every time you screw it up
Funny how I take the blame
Why is everything designed
To try and get a rise out of me
Can't believe you never guessed
Only playing second best to ya
You oughta know I'm in control
[Chorus]
I ain't gonna just roll over
You think that I'm here to please ya
But you don't even know, oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
[Verse 2]
You're so predictable
Don't open your mouth
'Cos everyday you're outta here
So best of luck
You think you're bailing out
You know you never leave
'Cos I got you by the time
That it takes to realise the truth
I'm using you
And the more you think you've won
The stronger I become
You wanna know, I'm in control
[Chorus]
I ain't gonna just roll over
You think that I'm here to please ya
But you don't even know, oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
I ain't gonna just roll over (Roll over)
You think that I'm here to please ya
But you don't even know, oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
[Bridge]
Why is everything designed
To try and get a rise out of me
But the more you think you've won
The stronger I become
You oughta know I'm in control
(Oh-oh-oh)
I got you wrapped around my finger
(Oh-oh-oh)
I got you wrapped around my finger
[Chorus]
I ain't gonna just roll over (Roll over)
You think that I'm here to please ya
(But you don't even know)
But you don't even know
(Oh baby) Oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
I ain't gonna just roll over
You think that I'm here to please ya
But you don't even know, oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
I ain't gonna just roll over (Roll over)
You think that I'm here to please ya
But you don't even know, oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
[Bridge]
Why is everything designed
To try and get a rise out of me
But the more you think you've won
The stronger I become
You oughta know I'm in control
(Oh-oh-oh)
I got you wrapped around my finger
(Oh-oh-oh)
I got you wrapped around my finger
[Chorus]
I ain't gonna just roll over (Roll over)
You think that I'm here to please ya
(But you don't even know)
But you don't even know
(Oh baby) Oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
I ain't gonna just roll over (Roll over)
You think that I'm here to please ya
But you don't even know, oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
You think that I'm here to please ya
But you don't even know, oh baby
I got you wrapped around my finger
