In the lyrics of the song 'I Have Questions' (by Camila Cabello), it says:
[Chorus 1]
I have questions for you
Number one, tell me who you think you are
You got some nerve trying to tear my faith apart
(I have questions for you)
Number two, why would you try and play me for a fool?
I should have never ever ever trusted you (I have questions)
Number three, why weren't you, who you swore that you would be?
I have questions, I got questions haunting me
I have questions for you
I have questions for you (I have questions)
I have questions for you
------
When I looked up the word 'play' in the OALD, it said:
play on something | play upon something
to take advantage of somebody’s feelings, etc.
So I don't know how I can understand the sentence on the view of grammar:
'why would you try and play me for a fool?'
Could you please help me?
Thanks!
PS I also posted the same question on this, but all of your answers are unique to me. Hope we can discuss with each other. Thank you.
