I don’t wanna be your fool
In this game for two
So I’m leaving you behind
Bye, bye, bye
I don’t wanna make it tough
But I’ve had enough
And it ain’t no lie
My baby
“Bye Bye Bye” is a song by American boy band NSYNC. It was released on January 11, 2000 as the first single from their second studio album No Strings Attached.[1]
The song was written and produced by Kristian Lundin and Jake Schulze, with additional writing by Andreas Carlsson. Its lyrics describe the end of a romantic relationship; it was reported to also reference the group’s separation from their manager Lou Pearlman and their record label RCA Records. This song was also featured on the 2001 American compilation album Now That’s What I Call Music! 6.
“Bye Bye Bye” was a commercial success, peaking at number 4 on the US Billboard Hot 100 and within the top 10 in almost every country it charted in. The song received a Grammy nomination in 2001 for Record of the Year, but lost to U2’s “Beautiful Day”.

Lyrics
[Intro]
Hey, hey
Bye, bye, bye
Bye, bye
Bye, bye
[Verse 1]
Girl I’m doing this tonight
You’re probably gonna start a fight
I know this can’t be right, hey baby come on
I loved you endlessly
And you weren’t there for me
So now it’s time to leave and make it alone
[Pre-Hook]
I know that I can’t take no more, it ain’t no lie
I wanna see you out that door
Baby bye, bye, bye
[Hook]
(Bye) I don’t want to be a fool for you
Just another player in your game for two
You may hate me but it ain’t no lie
Baby, bye, bye, bye
(Bye) I don’t really want to make it tough
I just wanna tell you that I had enough
Might sound crazy but it ain’t no lie
Baby, bye, bye, bye
[Verse 2]
Just hit me with the truth
Now, girl you’re more than welcome to
So give me one good reason baby come on
I live for you and me
And now I really come to see
That life would be much better once you’re gone
[Pre-Hook]
I know that I can’t take no more, it ain’t no lie
I wanna see you out that door
Baby bye, bye, bye
[Hook]
(Bye) I don’t want to be a fool for you
Just another player in your game for two
You may hate me but it ain’t no lie
Baby, bye, bye, bye
(Bye) I don’t really want to make it tough
I just wanna tell you that I had enough
Might sound crazy but it ain’t no lie
Baby, bye, bye, bye
[Interlude]
I’m giving up I know for sure
I don’t wanna be the reason for your love no more
(Bye, bye) I’m checkin’ out, I’m signin’ off
I don’t want to be the loser and I’ve had enough
[Bridge]
I don’t wanna be your fool
In this game for two
So I’m leaving you behind
Bye, bye, bye
I don’t wanna make it tough
But I’ve had enough
And it ain’t no lie
My baby
[Hook]
(Bye) I don’t want to be a fool for you
Just another player in your game for two
I don’t wanna be a fool
But it ain’t no lie
Baby, bye, bye, bye
(Bye) I don’t really want to make it tough
I just wanna tell you that I had enough
Might sound crazy but it ain’t no lie
Bye, bye, bye
