You Oughta Know Lyrics

You Oughta Know

You Oughta Know
Alanis Morissette
Album: Jagged Little Pill


I
want you to know, that I am 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 theater?
Does she speak eloquently
And would she have
your baby?
I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother

1-'Cause 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
Till you died, but you're still
alive

2-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 bug 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 f... her?
(rpt 1,2)

Ohh... aah... ahh...
ahh...

'Cause 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?
(rpt 2, 2...)
