Cover art for Dudley lyrics by Yeah Yeah Yeahs

I'm pretty sure its "then you pass me by"

"Lost all reason from playing your games Better quit staring cuz you're looking the same"

These lines make me think that its about a relationship, and shes tired of them playing games. Some bits remind me of the "chase" before a relationship of being passed by, but then other bits make me think that they are in a relationship and shes tired of trying to make it work.
