Setting Me Up

You say I'm the greatest
Bound for glory
Well word is out and I learned
I got the latest side of the story
Pulling out before you get burned
Your hands are squeezing me
Down to the bone
I never saw you breaking no law
Stands to reason I've got to leave you alone
What are you taking me for
Setting me up
To put me down
Making me out
To be your clown
Setting me up
To put me down
You’d better give it up, baby
Quit your messing ‘round
You think I care about
Your reaction
You think I don't understand
All you wanted was a piece of the action
Now you talk about another man
Setting me up
To put me down
You’re making me out
To be your clown
Setting me up
To put me down
You’d better give it up, baby
You gotta quit your messing ‘round
