You said you want your payback

You must think I owe you now

You must think the game ain’t over

How much more will I allow?



You’re saying that I stole from you

You’re telling folks these lies

You’re using your so-called info

You say that you’ve got spies



You seem to think I took so much

But how quickly we forget

Everything you stole from me

You’re way beyond your debt



And now you’ve got the nerve

To come back and start with me

I thought you learned you’re lesson

That you’d finally leave me be



And now that I’ve forgotten you

I completely disappeared

Why is it you’re still around

I thought I made it clear



I don’t ever want to see you

I don’t want to hear your voice

I don’t want you hangin’ around

I left you behind by choice



You think you might have found me

I must admit I’d never

Never thought you’d take that route

You must think you’re doggone clever



But soon you’re lies will trap you

You’ve dug yourself so deep

This ditch just keeps gettin’ bigger

You’re now sowing what you reap



You really want some payback?

You really want my dime?

Fat chance you’ll get a cent from me

I’m through with games this time



Now you’re getting mad at me

I’ve got better things to do

Your misery wants some company

I am so done with you



You say you want your payback

Your greed has made you thirst

But you ain’t getting shit from me

Give back what you stole first
