You Oughta Know
    Written by Alanis Morissette

  I want you to know that 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

  Bridge:
  'Cuz 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, 'til you died
  But you're still alive

  Chorus:
  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 Mr. Duplicity
  I hate to but 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 ?

  Bridge:
  'Cuz 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, 'til you died
  But you're sill alive

  Chorus:
  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

  'Cuz the joke that you laid in 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

  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
