You turned the tables on me
And now I'm falling for you
You turned the tables on me
I can't believe that it's true
I used to think when you brought
The pretty presents you bought
Why hadn't you brought me more
But now when you'd come
I'd welcome anything from
The five-and-ten-cent store
You used to call me the tops
You put me up on a throne
You let me fall with a drop
And now I'm back on my own
But after thinking it over and over
I got what was coming to me
Just like the sting of a bee
You turned the tables on me
You turned the tables on me
Now i'm falling for you
You turned the tables on me
I can't believe that it's true
I used to think when you brought
The pretty presents you bought
Why hadn't you brought me more
But now when you'd come
I'd welcome anything from
The five-and-ten-cent store
You used to call me the tops
You put me up on a throne
You let me fall with a drop
And now I'm back on my own
But after thinking it over and over
I got what was coming to me
You said I had a lesson that I had to learn
And like that old worm
You turned the tables, the tables on me
