Gives You Hell
Glee Cast⠀ Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I wake up every evening, with a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place
And you're still probably working at a 9 to 5 pace
I wonder how bad that tastes

When you see my face, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell

Now where's your picket fence love
And where's that shiny car,
And did it ever get you far

You've never seemed so tense love
I've never seen you fall so hard,
Do you know where you are

And truth be told I miss you (truth be told I miss you)
And truth be told I'm lying

(Ooh)
When you see my face, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's
Worth a damn and treats you well (treats you well)
Then he's a fool, you're just as well, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell

Tomorrow you'll be thinking to yourself
Yeah, where'd it all go wrong, but the list goes on and on
And truth be told I miss you (truth be told I miss you)
And truth be told I'm lying

When you see my face hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's
Worth a damn and treats you well (treats you well)
Then he's a fool, you're just as well, hope it gives you hell

Now you'll never see, what you've done to me
You can take back your memories they're no good to me
And here's all your lies,
You can look me in the eyes
With that sad sad look that you wear so well

When you see my face, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
If you find a man that's
Worth a damn and treats you well (treats you well)
Then he's a fool, yeah you're just as well, hope it gives you hell

When you see my face, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you walk my way, hope it gives you hell
Hope it gives you hell
When you hear this song and you sing along ,oh you'll never tell (oh you'll never tell)
Then you're the fool, I'm just as well
Hope it gives you hell (gives you hell)




When you hear this song, I hope that it will give you hell (gives you hell)
You can sing along, I hope that it will treat you well
