Song Lyrics

We were both sprung from the forests
Of the modest and correct
While I took a chance to escape it
You stayed and did your best
To be just as rebellious
As your cop dad would allow
I guess none of us would really make it
But at least one had the guts to try
Yeah I know, it's an admiration game
For reasons I may never fully understand
But hey, I do admit it
So you can preach it all you want
To the few that care to listen
Who think that bitterness is fun

But what have I ever done to you
What have I ever done to you
It's a silly kinda vengeance, I confess
But I win, you lose, I guess

I helped you when you needed it
I really did my best
Considering there was no payment
Other than the knife in my back
How long was this being planned for
How long did it take
To write something that mediocre
Just to trash somebody else
And now, well I guess that door got closed
By none other than yourself
See, I could have taught you
Every little dirty trick in my book
And now you're gonna have to figure it out
By standin' on the side and just look

So what have I ever done to you
What have I ever done to you
It's a silly kinda vengeance, I confess
But I win, you lose, I guess

Now ironically, you are probably
Feeling just a little bit honoured
That finally, someone noticed you
And wrote a whole song about you
But the truth is, in all of this
You were merely a catalyst
There's been people of the very same kind
Throughout my adult life
So here's two giant middle-fingers
To anyone who feels like they deserve them
Cause if you wanna be my enemy
I won't turn the other cheek
I'm-a come right back and I will
Crush you like a flea

Now what have I ever done to you
What have I ever done to you
It's a silly kinda vengeance, I confess
But I won, you lost, I guess
