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
