SWEET REVENGE
Bonnie Warren/ LauraWarren/615-636-3609; 610-420-9388


He was always lyin', n cheatin around
Kept her on a diet , never took her out
Anytime he wanted, made her meet his needs
Then he'd roll over, n she would have these dreams (of)

CHORUS:
Eating a cupcake, dancing on his grave
Throwing a party with her folks and friends
If she weren't his wife, she'd live her own life
But first his just might have to end, Sweet revenge

One chilly evening, carried out her plan
Mixed something (or "poison") in his supper, like always served her man
He sat and read the paper, gulped it all down
Three minutes later he fell dead on the ground

CHORUS: (now she's)
Eating a cupcake dancing on his grave
Throwin a party with her folks and friends
Broke into his drawer, found,thousands in there
Now she drives a new Mercedes Benz, Sweet revenge

BRIDGE:
Coroner's report said death by natural causes
No one was suspicious, O that dinner - so delicious
Obituary read ......he was a righteous man

CHORUS: (Now you can find her)
Eating a cupcake, dancing on his grave
What's done is done, she got no regrets
She hid that recipe, no one will ever see
Buried where his name's carved in cement, Sweet revenge

Tag:
She knows nothing could taste sweeter than her freedom, and sweet revenge
