Checkmate Songtext
von Annabel Gutherz

Parade in the summer of ′19
Makeup and torn and painted jean
A long while it has been
I know

Tell me about your escapades
I know that you don't like charades
Can call a spade a spade
I know

Don′t understand why you're acting like you don't know me
When you know me full well
I haven′t changed a bit in eight weeks
So stop
Just stop


Asking your questions
And thinking you′re so great
This isn't chess
So call off your checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no

Long night feels like it won′t end
You're not being a good friend
Otherwise I can′t pretend
I know

You're so distracted here
Your boredom′s what I fear
It's not how it appears
I know

Don't understand why you′re acting like you don′t know me
When you know me full well
I haven't changed a bit in eight weeks
So stop
Just stop


Asking your questions
And thinking you′re so great
This isn't chess
So call off your checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no

You′re not winning
This isn't a game
Don′t pretend that we're one in the same

You're not winning
This isn′t a game
Don′t pretend that we're one in the same

You′re not winning, no
You're just losing me

Just losing
Just losing
Just losing
Just losing

Stop
Thinking you′re so great
This isn't chess
So call off your checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
Checkmate, checkmate
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
No, no, no
