I Do Not Want What's Best For You
(The Breakup Song)
I have heard of those, when a romance ends
They pledge to be the best of friends
Whatever happens between us two
I only want what's best for you
Well I'm not like them!
May grief and pain rain down upon your head
May misfortune be yours until you're dead
Dear Lord, do these things for me
Then maybe I'll be free
I do not want what's best for you
I only want you to be screwed
May your bright career go suddenly down the tubes
May you lose your home and sell your body for food
Oh, if I saw you in the street
I'd shuffle my happy feet
And before I turned to walk away
I'd laugh my ass off in your face
May you end your life friendless and alone
May your wicked heart harden like a stone
Oh, when you draw your dying breath
I hope you're haunted by regret
For the terrible thing you did to me
Ya shouldn't have done it, can't ya see?
