	Lyrics Played (chorus) Don’t hate the playa Hate the game Don’t hate the game Just Cause you got played Don’t hate the game mami Cause the game won’t stop me And I know that it hurts when your man flirts But skirts is just one of the perks When runin the ball like Jamal We some dirty birds Put yourself in the game And buy out yo own monopoly Boardwalk the f off And take all your property You can’t hate the game Just cause you got played improperly Sometime you encounter them bench warming Figuras Them sit on the sideline and bitch Kind of figures Sitting at home Talking ish to the video game stick Kind of figures They don’t know how act in clutch situations Thinking they can turn the power off Don’t realize this is a game for men Not for boys And you ain’t Lara croft (chorus) Don’t hate the playa Hate the game Don’t hate the game Just Cause you got played Strike 1 2 3 And as you can see Another batter to the plate Trying to take your virginity Thinking if he can swing just right He can hit that spot and be off in one night His mind aint right he trying to ruin ya Running bases like Ken Griffey, Jr. How come I ain’t here of that sooner When did nintendo release a game called doing ya And you can’t hate the playa You need to stop blaming Most of them is rookies All they knew when they started training They was in it for the nookie Cookie ass bread boys Coming fresh out the oven Drop the ball more times in the preseason Than Jordan ever dropped basketballs in the bucket (chorus) Don’t hate the playa Hate the game Don’t hate the game Just Cause you got played Please press Button D, I, C on Pad P, S, Y Insert disk into Slot marked C N T Repeat until D, I, C is released Resulting in O,R,G,S,M Then begin again It not Game Over I’m pull out the instruction manual And learn how to handle you This game ain’t so hard Pull out the cash or say I love you And you do everything That I command you to And if can’t stand you I don’t mess up the game I won’t run through you I won’t break your heart I’ll tell you the truth So the next one on the ice Won’t have to lose you Sometimes when girls lose the game They get mad and quit Turn to licking pits Start bitching fits Won’t let another man touch they tips Make the game twice as hard for the next Playa off the bench But if you keep yourself correct Don’t worry and Don’t forget Games are meant to be fun But play at your own risk (chorus) Don’t hate the playa Hate the game Don’t hate the game Just Cause you got played Shoot, I got game so hard you can see it I call it video-game Almost like I control the whole show You know I mean I mean I don’t like them playaz out there that don’t know how to appreciate the game All aspects of the game you know that’s what it’s really about It ain’t all about hit it and be gone It all about how many you can play at one time Sometimes you get an opponent That make you wanna retire like Barry Sanders Go from running 2000 a year To running to the store for diapers Aight that’s enough of that yall just watch what your doing cause remember in every game Yeah, there’s winner But there’s also a loser and sometimes Being a bad sport will get you dealt with Yo I’m out
