Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, you made your bed
Better lie in it
Get back to sleep
[Verse 2]
You should see me when you're not around
I'm a genius in this town
I'm a queen bee when the coast is clear
Now I know I don't need you, dear
So leave your hand like a magic man and disappear
[Verse 3]
You're history
Like a beat up car
No good for me
Like an old film star
You're history
That's what you are
Na na na na
You're history
You're history
No good for me
No good for me
You're history
You're history
Na na na na na
[Verse 4]
You should see me from your ivory tower
I'm the hero of the hour
I'm a close friend of destiny
When you're not here to bother me
[Verse 5]
Well, you made your bed
Better lie in it
Get back to sleep, yeah yeah
[Verse 6]
You're history
Like ancient Rome
No good for me
Like the Dead Sea Scrolls
You're history
Everybody knows
Na na na na
You're history
You're history
My enemy
My enemy
You're history
You're history
Na na na na na
[Verse 7]
Oooh, ooh, oh oh yeah
Oh yeah, oh oh
Oh yeah, oh oh
Oh oh yeah, yeah yeah yeah
Whoa whoa whoa, oh yeahhh
[Verse 8]
So get on your bike and take a hike right out of here
Oh oh, oh oh yeah
[Verse 9]
You're history
You're history
No good for me
No good for me
You're history
You're history
Na na na na
You're history
Like a worn-out shoe
My enemy
You're nothing new
You're history
You're history
Ooh ooh ooh
You're history
Like a beat up car
No good for me
Like an old film star
You're history
You're history
Na na na na
[Verse 10]
You're history
Sing it, girl
Ah hey
Let me hear ya
You're history
Na na na na
You're history
Hmm, my enemy
Bye bye, bye bye, yeah
You're history
So long
You're history
I'll catch ya later
