Lyrics
[Refrain]
Work it out
[Verse 1]
I've played this game before (Oh)
Fighting for a hopeless cause (Oh)
And now you're at my door (Oh)
I've seen this trick before
[Chorus]
This one's for all my mean girls
This one's for all my mean girls
This one's for all my mean girls
This one's for all my mean girls
[Verse 2]
Here's one for the ones who left (Oh)
One for the abandonment (Oh)
Fucked in a fun way we get (Oh)
Kept it vague so you could guess (Oh)
[Refrain]
So you could work it out
[Bridge]
I won't break down, I won't
Not I, oh no, it is my fault
I know it now, oh no, I gave you everything
Too much, it's true, then took it all away
In front of you
[Chorus]
This one's for all my mean girls
This one's for all my mean girls
This one's for all my mean girls (This one's for all the mean girls)
This one's for all my mean girls (This one's for all the mean girls)
[Verse 3]
I don't understand what you're gonna do
I followed the rules, I took the abuse
I don't understand where you're coming from
I down all our pills, I love you the most
Be with, with me
Be with
Thought you could talk
[Chorus]
This one's for all my mean girls
This one's for all my mean girls
This one's for all my mean girls
This one, this one, this one, this one's for all my mean girls (This one's for all my mean girls)
This one's for all my mean girls (This one's for all my bad girls)
This one's for all my mean girls (That's right, that's right, that's right, uh)
This one, this one, this one, oh (That's right)
[Verse 4]
I've played this game before (Oh)
Fighting for a hopeless cause (Oh)
And now you're at my door (And now you're at my door, baby-y)
I've seen this trick before (I've seen it all before, yeah)
Here's one for the ones who left (Here's one for the ones who left)
One for the abandonment (One for the abandoned girls)
Fucked in a fun way we get (We really fucked it up, baby)
Kept it vague so you could guess
[Outro]
So you could work it out, out, out, out, out, out, out, out, out, out, out, out, out, out
Work it out
Yeah
