    I want you to know
    That I’m happy for you
    I wish nothing, but
    The best for you both

    An older version of me
    Is she perverted like me?
    Would she go down on you in a theatre?
    Does she speak eloquently?
    And would she have your baby?
    I’m sure she’d make a really excellent mother

    'Cause the love that you gave that we made
    Wasn’t able to make it enough for you to be open wide
    No, and every time you speak her name
    Does she know how you told
    Me you’d hold me until you died?
    'Til you died, but you’re still alive

    And I’m here, to remind you
    Of the mess you left when you went away
    It’s not fair, to deny me
    Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
    You, you, you oughta know

    You seem very well
    Things look peaceful
    I’m not quite as well
    I thought you should know

    Did you forget about me
    Mr. Duplicity? I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner
    But it was a slap in the face
    How quickly I was replaced
    And are you thinking of me when you fuck her

    'Cause the love that you gave that we made
    Wasn’t able to make it enough for you to be open wide
    No, and every time you speak her name
    Does she know how you told me
    You’d hold me until you died?
    'Til you died, but you’re still alive

    And I’m here, to remind you
    Of the mess you left when you went away
    It’s not fair, to deny me
    Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
    You, you, you oughta know

    'Cause the joke that you laid in the bed that was me
    And I’m not gonna fade as soon as you close your eyes
    And you know it
    And every time I scratch my nails
    Down someone else’s back, I hope you feel it
    Now can you feel it?

    'Cause I’m here, to remind you
    Of the mess you left when you went away
    It’s not fair to deny me
    Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
    You, you, you oughta know

    Why I’m here, to remind you
    Of the mess you left when you went away
    It’s not fair, to deny me
    Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
    You, you, you oughta know
    🤘🤘

      About 8 years after that song came out, one of my uncles saw the CD in my truck, pointed at that song on the case, and exclaimed, “Holy shit! Have you ever paid attention to the words in that song?!” Uhh, yup.

      My parents had a neighborhood grocery store when I was a kid. Our house only had a single bathroom, so often, I’d be getting ready for school at the same time she was getting ready to go into work, and we’d both be in the bathroom. I’d finish my shower, and be wrapping up in my towel behind the curtain, while she’d be doing her hair in the mirror, having imaginary arguments with “bitchy customers.” - At least that was her answer when I finally asked her what the deal was with her arguing into the mirror in the morning.

      That’s Dave Coulier, best known for his role on Full House. It has long been rumored that Alannis Morissette wrote the song “You Oughta Know” about him, though it has never been confirmed.

        Shes had sharp quips about Dave over the years, and the timelines work out.

        She dated Ryan Reynolds for years too. She clealry has a thing for comedians.

          When you use the word pedo to describe age gaps between adults you’re diluting the word and harming actual sexual abuse victims. Don’t do that.

            Can’t wait till the flood releases and you have to eat your words. It’s coming. You think a 60 year old man who publicly dates a 20 year old couldn’t possibly go younger in private but you’d be surprised.

            He won a huge pr battle with his ex wife but his day is coming. Everyone ignores all the evil and fucked up things that came out about him during that trial because his wife was crazier and more abusing than him. A 60 year old who dates women barely out of their teens and then complains when they’re immature, lol. He’s such a creep. And again the day is coming. Mark my words. As a victim myself I get to see the pattern when it’s happening to someone else, and as a survivor i get to call people out. Even if it’s people you love but need to be called out

            Your comment saying i can’t call people out cause it hurts victims is so sanctimonious and assumes that victims don’t exist and couldn’t possibly be Lemmy users. You guys think everyone here is a North American whites person with privilege

              Stick to the topic.

              This is not about your suppositions, rumour mills or assumptions about other people. Don’t fucking use the word “pedo” to describe an age disparity between adults.

              It’s not hard. Why you had to dump three paragraphs of gish gallop rather than just not use the word pedo to refer to an age gap between adults is beyond me

              (also very much NOT AN AMERICAN as a three second glance and the most basic of reading comprehension woulda realised loool)
