Sweet Revenge

Sweet Revenge I have a seething fire flaming inside of me Everything you own is in a pile on the porch I'll wreak havoc for what you did to me Your gas tank is punctured I used it on my torch Everything will burn like your memory in my head I'll bust all the windows and break down the door Burn it real good so people know you're dead Burn it into ash and dust so you are no more I'll never ever remember you You don't exist you'll be no more I'll have my revenge on you watch what I do I'll wipe you from Earth like dirt from the floor I found your stash of money in the old oak chest And all the liquor hidden underneath the bed I doused your bedding as you snored your very best That stinking whiskey should make sure you're good and dead I emptied your ammo on your bed while you slept Your gas tank is empty it's seeping through the floor There's no way you'll survive I did it all then checked One little match strike and you're gone forever more I will have my sweet revenge on you Never more will you cheat or be untrue You won't be there in my memory This may be the crime of the century I'll never ever remember you You don't exist you'll be no more I'll have my revenge on you watch what I do I'll wipe you from Earth like dirt from the floor Jane Shields
