Lyrics
(Sweet) Mental Revenge
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.
Well I hope that the friend that you've thrown yourself on
Gets drunk and loses her job
And every road that you travel on
Is dusty rocky and hard
I couldn't make you love me
You only made me blue
So all in all if the curtain should fall
Then I hope that it falls on you
And I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
Well I hope that the train from Caribou, Maine
Runs over your new love affair
You'll walk the floor from dawn to dawn
And you'll tear out your peroxide hair
I never was your woman
Cause you were never true
So all in all if the curtain should fall
Then I hope that it falls on you
And I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
I will have sweet
Sweet sweet mental revenge
