How will you feel when the king has gotta lie down?
Will you finally see that is something that couldn’t work out?
You thought that you’d be ready, but I knew that you always had your doubts
I just wanted to be the one to save you, the one that knew how
But this all would have an ending that was so clear to see
Cause you couldn’t wrap your head around the jealousy
That's why I’m calling checkmate (checkmate)
I’m calling checkmate on you, baby
Oh, I’m calling checkmate (checkmate)
You are gonna lose ‘cause you chose to make the moves you made Checkmate (checkmate)
I’m calling checkmate on you, baby
Oh, I’m calling checkmate (checkmate)
Girl, you will always lose when you choose to make the moves you make
(yeah, yeah, ooh ooh oooh)
Said how will you feel when the king has gotta lie down?
Cause you put up a wall around the castle that I just can’t climb around
I can hear you on the other side of it, screaming
But you’re too afraid to face the demons
So you let your heart just take the beating
And I’m the one who pays for it, so I gotta dip
I’m calling checkmate (checkmate)
I’m calling checkmate on you, baby
Oh, I’m calling checkmate (checkmate)
You are gonna lose ‘cause you chose to make the moves you made Checkmate (checkmate)
I’m calling checkmate on you, baby
Oh, I’mcalling checkmate (checkmate)
Girl, you will always lose when you choose to make the moves you make
And I don’t really wanna do this (do this)
Girl, it’s breaking my heart in two (in two)
Yes, I’d give anything to keep on playing here with you
And maybe we can pick these pieces up and
start a game another day when things have changed (hey!)
But you left me with no other moves to choose
Checkmate
I’m calling checkmate on you, baby
Oh, I’m calling checkmate (checkmate)
You are gonna lose ‘cause you chose to make the moves you made Checkmate (checkmate)
I’m calling checkmate on you, baby
Oh, I’m calling checkmate, checkmate
Cause you will always lose when you choose to make the moves you make (Yeah yeah)
(Yeah yeah)
I’m all out of options
I’m all out of options
