Melanie Martinez - Play Date
Verse 1
You call me on the telephone, you feel so far away
You tell me to come over there's some games you want to play
I'm walking to your house, nobody's home
It's me and you and you and me alone
(Pre chorus)
We're just playing hide and seek
It's getting hard to breathe under the sheets with you
I don't want to play no games
I'm tired of always chasing, chasing after you
(Chorus)
I don't give a fuck about you anyways
Whoever said I gave a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess I'm just a play date to you
Verse 2
Wake up in your bedroom and there's nothing left to say
When I try to talk you're always playing board games
I wish I had monopoly over your mind
I wish I didn't care all the time
(Pre chorus)
We're just playing hide and seek
It's getting hard to breathe under the sheets with you
I don't want to play no games
I'm tired of always chasing, chasing after you
(Chorus)
I don't give a fuck about you anyways
Whoever said I gave a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess I'm just a play date to you
(Bridge)
Ring around the rosy
I never know, I never know what you need
Ring around the rosy, I want to give you, want to give you
What you need
(Chorus)
I don't give a fuck about you anyways
Whoever said I gave a shit about you?
You never share your toys or communicate
I guess I'm just a play date to you
You know I give a fuck about you everyday
Guess it's time that I tell you the truth
If I share my toys, will you let me stay?
Don't want to leave this play date with you
Play Date is the first deluxe track on Melanie Martinez's 2015 debut album ''Cry Baby'' and the 14th song overall. The song was written by Melanie Martinez & Jennifer Decilveo, while production was handled by Jennifer Decilveo & Michael Keenan. This tells the story of Cry Baby feeling like she’s nothing more than a friend to the boy she likes. He is constantly inviting her over to play games, but Cry Baby feels that he does not care about her as much as she cares about him. Frustrated, she outwardly proclaims she is just as uncommitted as he is, and how she's tired of all the games she has to play to stay with him. She wishes she didn’t care about his antisocial behavior towards her, and wishes she could stop chasing after him. During the song's ending, she admits to actually liking spending time with him despite his odd behavior. She states that she does not want to leave him.
