Lyrics Play Dumb - The Crookes

Play Dumb

I’ve had my mid-life crisis by the age of twenty-five
You say my head ain’t right
I’m tired of myself but don’t know why
I’m dirt under your thumb, not pretty enough to play dumb
I don’t need you no more
Wake up Love you got me so bored
Please understand I’m not giving up but I won’t change to get you off
Don’t you dare compare me to poster-boys too thick to see the truth
Hard luck, it’s not like I give a fuck, I’d rather you despise my every move
I’m dirt under your thumb, not pretty enough to play dumb
Maybe I’ve been your scum but I don’t need you no more
I’m waking up dumb, you got me so bored
Please understand I’m not giving up but I can’t change to get you off
I’m dirt under your thumb
I refuse to play dumb
Please understand I’m not giving up but I won’t change to get you off
