Story Behind The Song
I was going out with a girl who was older than me and out of the blue she started behaving like a child.I went to see her in Iowa and told her i was going to stay there for five days. The first three days i was there she was hosting a art affair. The next two days I was going to spend with her. She ignored me when i was there and i went to the bar down the street most of the time to try to enjoy my vacation. When i got back to the fair some other girls were hitting on me and she saw it. She basically started playing alot of games the minute i got there. I ended up spending one day in Iowa by myself because of the madness. I was so enraged with it all iwrote this song. She was two faced and confusing. I expected more from her since she was so normal for a while

Lyrics
Part of me doesn?t care about the games we play, or the way you make the hair stand up on my head, up on my head
The other part of me thinks it?s getting old throw your cards in and fold, dead at the seems, dead at the seems
And I Don?t want to be here any more, And I don?t care what?s commin down the path. Shoots and ladders is played by ten year olds, and I have since moved on from that?. Done with that
Lady, Lady, Lady, Let it come undone, Let the bottom fall out, become undone,
Writings on the wall, let the Berlin fall, leave it in Chernobyl??become undone
Took a while to see you, and all you do, when I come on through, all you ask me to, play is gin .play gin
Time after time, trying to sing you rimes, never wrote a song for you, its not ?Hey Jude?, but here it is, here it is
And I don?t want to be here anymore, and I don?t care whats commin down the path, Shoots and ladders is played by ten year olds, and I have since moved on from that, done with that
Lady, Lady, Lady let it come undone, let the bottom fall out, become undone,
Writings on the wall, let the Berlin fall, leave it in Chernobyl become undone, become undone
Become undone, it?s not fun to hold on to nothing, slippery slopes slimy ropes, equals no hope, no hope, no hope
And I don?t want to be here anymore, and I don?t care what?s commin down the path, shoots and ladders is played by ten year olds, and I have since moved on from that, done with that
And I don?t want to be here anymore, and I don?t want to be here anymore, and I don?t want to be here anymore whoa whoa whoa
