I want you to know, that I'm happy for you
|
I wish nothing but the best for you both
|
An older version of me
|
Is she perverted like me
|
Would she go down on you in a theatre
|
Does she speak eloquently
|
And would she have your baby
|
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
|
|
Cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able
|
To make it enough for you to be open wide, no
|
And every time you speak her name
|
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
|
Until you died, till you died
|
But you're still alive
|
|
And I'm here to remind you
|
Of the mess you left when you went away
|
It's not fair to deny me
|
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
|
You, you, you oughta know
|
|
You seem very well, things look peaceful
|
I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know
|
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity
|
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
|
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
|
Are you thinking of me when you fuck her
|
|
Cause the love that you gave that we made wasn't able
|
To make it enough for you to be open wide, no
|
And every time you speak her name
|
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
|
Until you died, til you died
|
But you're still alive
|
|
And I'm here to remind you
|
Of the mess you left when you went away
|
It's not fair to deny me
|
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
|
You, you, you oughta know
|
|
Cause the joke that you laid on the bed that was me
|
And I'm not gonna fade
|
As soon as you close your eyes and you know it
|
And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back
|
I hope you feel it...well can you feel it
|
|
And I'm here to remind you
|
Of the mess you left when you went away
|
It's not fair to deny me
|
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
|
You, you, you oughta know
|
