You Oughta Know
Lyrics
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 theater?

Of the mess you left when you went away
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
You seem very well, things look peaceful
I hope you feel it
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
It's not fair to deny me
It's not fair to deny me
I wish nothing but the best for you both
Can you feel it?
Of the mess you left when you went away
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
But you're still alive
Of the mess you left when you went away
Well I'm here to remind you
You, you, you oughta know
And I'm here to remind you
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
It's not fair to deny me
And I'm here to remind you
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
Why I'm here to remind you
And I'm not gonna fade
I want you to know that I'm happy for you
And are you thinking of me when you fuck her?

An older version of me, is she perverted like me?
And every time you speak her name

Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity?
Of the mess you left when you went away
Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
Until you died, 'til you died?
As soon as you close your eyes, and you know it
Wasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time I scratch my nails down someone else's back
And every time you speak her name
'Cause the joke that you made in the bed that was me
Does she speak eloquently and would she have your baby?
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
I'm not quite as well, I thought you should know
'Cause the love that you gave that we made
Until you died, 'til you died?
You, you, you oughta know
Would she go down on you in a theater?
You, you, you oughta know
You, you, you oughta know
Does she know how you told me you'd hold me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
It's not fair to deny me
But you're still alive
