Lyrics and translation
Original
Work it out
I've played this game before (oh-oh-oh)
Fighting for a hopeless cause (oh-oh-oh)
And now you're at my door (oh-oh-oh)
I've seen this trick before
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
Here's one for the ones who left (oh-oh-oh)
One for the abandonment (oh-oh-oh)
Fucked in a fun way we get (oh-oh-oh)
Kept it vague so you could guess
So you could work it out (oh-oh-oh)
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
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)
This one's for all my mean girls (this one's for all my mean girls)
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
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 (that's right), oh
I've played this game before (oh-oh-oh)
Fighting for a hopeless cause (oh-oh-oh)
And now you're at my door (and now you're at my door, baby)
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 (oh, oh, you could guess)
So you could work it out
Out, out, out, out, out, out, out, out
Out-out-out-out-out
Work it out
Yeah
