Gone Fishing

I can't wait to see your face
The first time that you see
Someone else is driving
Your funky red MG
And I'd love to watch your eyes
When you see a certain 'she'
Is the driver, and she bought your car
From none other than me

You'll be amazed at what she paid
For your car ... such a steal
Well, you shouldn't have put it in my name
In that tax avoidance deal
And you shouldn't have just left it here
When you said you had to go
A fraction of its value?
Well,….how was I to know?

It’s a sweet sweet thing
When you call me on the phone
And I play back your message saying
You want those things you own
But It's a sweet sweet thing
To give what I don't need
A little lure of vengeance
hooks the big fish of greed

Your Armani suits sit proudly
In some second hand store
I'd tell you where it is
But can’t remember any more
And you can claim back your speakers
And that big expensive amp
From the neighbour who hates you
You know - the kickboxing champ?

You smugly made me pay
In your ugly little way
When you told me you were leaving
And I was begging you to stay
But the lure was too tempting
The line was too strong
The fish may be taking
The bait before too long

Its a sweet sweet thing
When you're knocking on my door
And I pay you no attention
To even up the score
It's a sweet sweet thing
To see the mess you're in
Thanks for the loan
You should have changed your PIN

Yes it hurt when you called me names
It hurt when you weren’t fair
And it hurt when you'd come home
Smelling of perfume I don’t wear
And it hurt when you met her
Then left me on my own
But it felt so good in so many ways
When she dropped you like a stone

Its a sweet sweet thing
From your head to your toes
Your feat was survival
It comes, then it goes
But It's a sweet sweet thing
To give away what I don't need
A little lure of vengeance caught
A big fish indeed
