Better
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Saw you walking down the street the other day
With your new girl
And I'm really trying not to be mean
But how does that not make you hurl
She is not what I expected from the rumors
That I've overheard
And you might be desperate but baby
Boy you'd have to be absurd
To be with her
Look at me now I'm looking better than you ever have
Look at me now I'm doing better than you ever have
I bet you close your eyes and think of me when you're in that hag
Look at me now and you can try
But you won't get me back
And I might be bitter but baby I know what I saw
And I heard she was something else
But this beats the worst ones you've had before me
No no no
I was young I was dreamy
Got you on your knees
Begging: Stay with me please
You're the best that I've been with
Boy you must be hurting
Not thinking straight
You must be joking
This one's a whole new low for you
Look at me now I'm looking better than you ever have
Look at me now I'm doing better than you ever have
I bet you close your eyes and think of me
When you're in that hag
Look at me now and you can try
But you won't get me back
Try as you may
Nobody buys it when you say you're good
So describe to me Shawn
How do you get it on when you see her nude
You're nothing to me
Baby I'm so damn free
Man I hope you're happy 'cos you
Couldn't handle me no, no
So go have your fun
I'm a 10 she's a 1
I'm not jealous you settled
Baby we both know I won
Look at me now I'm looking better than you ever have
Look at me now I'm doing better than you ever have
I bet you close your eyes and think of me
When you're in that hag
Look at me now I'm looking better than you ever have
Look at me now I'm doing better than you ever have
I bet you close your eyes
And think of me when you're in that hag
Look at me now
I'm doing so much better
