Better than revenge

Now go stand on the corner and think about what you did

Our story starts when it was hot and it was summer
And I had it all, I had him right there where I wanted him
She came along, got him alone and right through the applause
She took him faster than you could say ‘sabotage’

I never saw it coming more than I suspected it
I underestimated just who I was dealing with
She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum
She underestimated just who she was stealing from

She’s not a saint and she’s not what you think
She’s an actress, whoa oh
But she’s better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, whoa oh Soon she’s gonna find
Stealing other people’s toys
On the playground
Won’t make you many friends

She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge, ha!

She lives her life like it’s a party and she’s on the list
She looks to me like I’m a trend and she’s ‘so over it’
A think her ever-present frown is a little troubling and
She thinks I’m psycho ’cause I like to rhyme her name with things

But sophistication isn’t what you wear or who you know
Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
Oh, they don’t teach you that in prep school, so it’s up to me
But no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity

She’s not a saint and she’s not what you think
She’s an actress, whoa oh
But she’s better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, whoa oh

Soon she’s gonna find
Stealing other people’s toys
On the playground
Won’t make you many friends She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge, ha!

I’m just another thing for you to roll your eyes at, honey
You might have him, but haven’t you heard?
I’m just another thing for you to roll your eyes at, honey
You might have him, but I always get the last word

She’s not a saint and she’s not what you think
She’s an actress, whoa oh
She’s better known for the things that she does
On the mattress, whoa oh

Soon she’s gonna find
Stealing other people’s toys
On the playground
Won’t make you many friends

She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge, ha!

Do you still feel like you know what you’re doing?
‘Cause I don’t think you do
Oh, do you still feel like you know what you’re doing?
I don’t think you do, I don’t think you do

Steal the applause
Come on, show me how much better you are
So much better, yeah?
So you deserve some applause
‘Cause you’re so much better

She took him faster than you could say ‘sabotage’
