Sometimes you say, you will
Sometimes you say, you won't
You always keep me waiting
Waiting, hesitating, hey there
At times, I think you do
At times, I think you don't
My mind is rollerskating
Skipping, jumping rope then fading
Mental hopscotch
Why must you treat me this way?
Mental hopscotch
Ready or not, I'm going away there
Why can't you be like this?
Why can't you be like that?
I don't know where I am?
Or where, or where I'm at?
So now you got me up
An' now you got me down
You will be walking, you'll be talking
Watch me now, it's crazy
Mental hopscotch
Why must you treat me this way?
Mental hopscotch
Ready or not, I'm going away
Mental hopscotch
Cover your eyes and count to 10
Mental hopscotch
Don't do 'em up till I say when
So now you got me up
And now you got me down
You will be walking, you'll be talking
Watch me now, it's crazy
You don't think twice
About what I might say
I follow you around an' play
An' play, an' play, an' play, an' play
Mental hopscotch
Why must you treat me this way?
Mental hopscotch
Ready or not, I'm going away
Mental hopscotch
Cover your eyes and count to 10
Mental hopscotch
Don't do 'em up till I say when
Mental hopscotch
Do me, dump me, rill me, rock me
Mental hopscotch
Rollerskating, skipping, fading
Mental hopscotch
Mental hopscotch
Mental hopscotch
