You Oughta Know (Jimmy the Saint Blend) / Your House - A Capella; 2015 Remaster

Lyrics

I want you to know that I'm happy for you
 I wish nothing but the best for you both
 An older version of me, is she perverted like me
 Would she go down on you in a theatre?
 Does she speak eloquently? And would she have your baby?
 I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother
 '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, 'til you died
 But you're still alive
 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
 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 fuck her
 '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, 'til you died
 But you're sill alive
 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
 '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
 Well 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
 Well, 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 went to your house
 I walked up the stairs
 I opened your door without ringing the bell
 I walked down the hall
 Into your room
 Where I could smell you
 And I shouldn't be here, without permission
 I shouldn't be here
 Would you forgive me love
 If I danced in your shower
 Would you forgive me love
 If I laid in your bed
 Would you forgive me love
 If I stay all afternoon
 I took off my clothes
 Put on your robe
 I went through your drawers
 And I found your cologne
 Went down to the den
 Found your CD's
 And I played your Joni
 And I shouldn't stay long, you might be home soon
 I shouldn't stay long
 Would you forgive me love
 If I danced in your shower
 Would you forgive me love
 If I laid in your bed
 Would you forgive me love
 If I stay all afternoon
 I burned your incense
 I ran a bath
 I noticed a letter that sat on your desk
 It said "Hello love, I love you so, love, meet me at midnight"
 And no, it wasn't my writing
 I'd better go soon
 It wasn't my writing
 So forgive me love
 If I cry in your shower
 So forgive me love
 For the salt in your bed
 So forgive me love
 If I cry all afternoon
