lyrics | learn to sing You Oughta Know

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

'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 ought to 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.

to deny you're 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

why?

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 ought to know

'Cause the joke that you laid in 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 well 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 ought to know I'm here to remind you of the mess you left when you went away

it's not fair to deny me all the cross I bear that you gave to me you, you, you ought to know
