Don't you know you get what you pay for?
If you want good stuff, you have to pay more
If you close a window, you open a door
If you drink too much, you'll wake up on the floor
You used to say I was something special
Forgive me now, I'm getting sentimental
My insurance covers vision and dental
Thought you bought my heart, it was just a rental
Give me back the time I wasted on you
Commit your crimes, that's all you know how to do
An honest day's work really made you a jerk
I gave you my heart and I got screwed
You knocked me down but I picked myself up
Blame it all on beginner's luck
You though I cared, I didn't give a care
That's funny, I bet you thought I'd say "fuck"
Now I'm riding high, I'm back in the saddle
Go on, split. Go on, skedaddle!
Guess where you are? You're without a paddle
I know you're secrets and I'm going to tattle
Give me back the time I wasted on you
Commit your crimes, that's all you know how to do
An honest day's work really made you a jerk
I gave you my heart and I got screwed
