Lyrics

Just Desserts
Copyright 2013 by Deborah Wedekind

She always speaks her mind,
Too bad there's not much mind to speak of,
She sure does love her whine,
But not the kind of wine you drink of
So tell me what you saw in her, that you didn't see in me
When she's like a shot of moonshine,
And I'm like a fine Chablis.

It all looks good from the frontside,
It all seems appealing going in
But everything's crystal clear, in hindsight,
Now that you're missing, what might have been-
Now I'm not sure that you've noticed
But you did me a favor by leaving
Now she's giving you your just desserts,
Along with a little side...
A little side... of cheating

I've seen those eyes before
I used to look the same way at you
But she's got a treat in store
A web of lies you cannot cut through
This town can talk, and boy they love to talk, talk bout what they see,
Now I hear, she's doing to you
The same thing you did to me.
(Repeat Chorus)

Now here's some final food for thought
Enjoy what you've been served
You've earned yourself a heaping plate
Of getting what you deserve...

It all looks good from the frontside,
It all seems appealing going in
But everything's crystal clear, in hindsight,
And reality sure bites when it kicks in.
Now I'm not sure that you've noticed
But you did me a big favor by leaving
Now she's giving you your just desserts,
Along with a little side
A little side... of cheating.

She's giving you your just desserts,
Along with a little side,
A little side, of cheating...
A little side of cheating.
