Neil Jordan - Better Than Revenge lyrics

rate me

Oh Brandon how could you be such a jerk?

You say you love me but you treat me like a piece of dirt.

I could've loved you till the day that I died

Stare in those beautiful eyes and enjoy your smile.

But then that day

The day my feelings started to go fade to gray.

When I saw you on the street making out with my best friend.

I kn-kn-knew it had to be do-done.

You cheated on me

You broke my heart

How did I ever believe you?

So I killed you and it was Better than revenge!

So you might ask of a girl like me

How did I kill that hunk so easily?

Well Brandon is the type who lets his weakness show

I took a baseball bat to his thro-ooh-oat.

And in his last breath he said

I never meant to hurt you

But to me he was dead

The moment that I saw him cheating

You cheated on me

You broke my heart

How did I ever believe you?

So I killed you and it was Better than revenge!

Woah-oh-oh-oh

Revenge is sweet

Woah-oh-oh-oh

But it's never good enough for me

Well Brandon he had it coming

Sure he was charming and good looking

But he was just like every other guy who would make me cry.

So I did what I had to do

No matter the cost

He cheated on me

He broke my heart

How did I ever believe you?

So I killed him and it was

Better than revenge

Oh oh oh

So much better than revenge

Yeah yeah yeah

Better than revenge

Oooh oh
