[Verse 1:]
I saw you with that girl last night
The both of you were making eyes
You did it right in front of my face
As if I had no pride
And now you're always working late
You never have much time for me
And you're expecting me to believe
That you're not out with she... please!
Tonight I give you my surprise
I hope that you won't mind
I'm giving you an eye for an eye
Baby, I've found another
And he is my lover
And I'm going out for the rest of your life
[Chorus:]
I betcha never thought I'd go that far
I betcha never thought I'd break your heart
I betcha never even thought at all
I betcha never, no you never
[Verse 2:]
I know that everybody lies
That I know I can't deny
But what if they're intentional
The intention of your crime
'Cause I know how much I can take
I know my heart demands a change
If I can't have my way, then all I have to say
Tonight, I give you my surprise
In return for all the lies
I'm giving you an eye for an eye
Baby, I've found another
And he is my lover
And we're going out for the rest of your life
[Repeat Chorus:]
