Soon as I met her the match was made
(A game that love arranges, now)
And I resigned to tempt the hand of fate
(With passionate exchanges, now)
That I could not afford
Now she controls the board
Oh, my Lord
Cause she took me, shook me
She had me right from the start now baby
She made me, played me
You know that little girl
She made a move on my heart
Quickly I opened with a daring move
(To challenge her position, now)
But then she countered brilliantly to prove
(The Queen is on a mission, now)
My little heart is gone
A sacrificial pawn
All night long
When she fooled me, schooled me
Yeah, she was right off the chart now baby
She moved me, grooved me
You know that little girl
She made a move on my heart
I quit the game, now I'm not a player
(No more razzle dazzle, now)
Just a big bad bishop, without a prayer
(A king without a castle, now)
Knight fell and so did I
Checkmate and say goodbye
Oh my my
