You Oughta Know
Richard Cheese Lyrics

I want you to know, that I am happy for you
I want you to know that I am not bitter about our past, and I wish you all the best.

I wish nothing but the best for you both
I want only good things for you and the person you are with now.

An older version of me
The person I used to be feels completely different from who I am now.

Is she perverted like me?
Does the person you are with now have the same sexual interests as I do?

Would she go down on you in a theater?
Would she be willing to perform sexual acts in public like I did with you?

Does she speak eloquently
Does your new partner speak with the same level of intelligence and articulation as I do?

And would she have your baby?
Would your new partner want to have a child with you like I did?

I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
I believe that your new partner would be a good mother if you were to have a child together.

'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
The love we shared wasn't enough for you to be emotionally vulnerable with me. And now, when you say her name, I wonder if she knows about the promises you made to me that you clearly didn't keep.

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
I'm here to tell you that the pain and confusion you caused me when you left still lingers. It's not right for you to pretend like you weren't a part of that and that you didn't contribute to my suffering.

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?
You appear to be okay and living a peaceful life, but I'm struggling with the aftermath of our relationship. I feel like you are two-faced and have forgotten about me. Is it inconvenient for me to reach out to you when you're eating dinner with your new partner? It hurts how easily you were able to move on from me, and it makes me question if you still think of me when you're intimate with her.

'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?
The person you lay in bed with and joke around with used to be me, and those experiences won't fade away. Even when you're alone with your thoughts, I hope you remember what we had. And every time you're intimate with someone else, I hope you feel a pang of guilt and remember what you did to me.
