Lyrics
I want you to knowThat 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
Mister Duplicity
I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face
How quickly I was replaced
And 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 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
Aaah
Aaah
Aah aah aah ah aah ah aah ah
'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
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 oughta know
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
