Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The story starts when it was hot and it was summer and
I had it all, I had him right there where I wanted him
She came along, got him alone, and let's hear the applause
She took him faster than you could say sabotage
I never saw it coming, wouldn't have suspected it
I underestimated just who I was dealing with
She had to know the pain was beating on me like a drum
She underestimated just who she was stealing from
[Chorus]
She's not a saint and she's not what you think, she's an actress, whoa
He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the matches, whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge
[Verse 2]
She looks at life like it's a party and she's on the list
She looks at me like I'm a trend and she's so over it
I think her ever present frown is a little troubling
She thinks I'm psycho 'cause I like to rhyme her name with things
Sophistication isn't what you wear, or who you know
Or pushing people down to get you where you wanna go
They didn't teach you that in prep school, so it's up to me
But no amount of vintage dresses gives you dignity
[PreChorus]
Band T-shirts are better!
[Chorus]
She's not a saint and she's not what you think, she's an actress, whoa
He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the matches, whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge
[Bridge]
I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at, honey
You might have him, but haven't you heard
I'm just another thing for you to roll your eyes at, honey
You might have him, but I'll always get the last word
[Chorus]
She's not a saint and she's not what you think, she's an actress, whoa
He was a moth to the flame, she was holding the matches, whoa
Soon she's gonna find
Stealing other people's toys on the playground
Won't make you many friends
She should keep in mind, she should keep in mind
There is nothing I do better than revenge
[Refrain]
Do you still feel like you know what you're doing?
'Cause I don't think you do
Do you still feel like you know what you're doing?
I don't think you do, I don't think you do
[Outro]
Let's hear the applause
Show me how much better you are
So you deserve some applause
'Cause you're so much better
She took him faster than you could say sabotage
