lyrics

How did it come to this?
Was I the only one to blame?
Oh, how was I to know I'd be so easily replaced?
You've gotten so good at talking through gritted teeth
Got that 2 door, V8, midlife crisis machine
I bet when she answers the door not wearing a single thing
You hardly notice you've gone and slipped off your ring
So it begins

I was tired of waiting for you
I'd be lying if I said I wasn't surprised
But in the back of my mind I knew
Your night'd begin with your hand on her thighs
They've got a name for you now
Get used to colorful words and hateful stares
More than your mind allows
You know precisely what you'll find in there

I hate to say they told me so
But I've heard it all before
I guess you don't have to say that you're sorry anymore
Because human nature explains everything you've done
This 200 year old concept's relatively young
So when the dust has settled, let me know, my love
Was it worth it? Was it enough
For your foolish pride?

So I'm taking the house and I'm taking the kids
And I'm taking the car you bought
I doubt you'll ever see any of them again
I'll make sure of that
I'll make sure of that
