Takes One To Know One

What are you lookin' at?

(Yeah)



I saw this coming

From a mile away

I saw a crack

In the egg

A little rip

In the page



I found

Your necklace

On the floor

Underneath the bed

Where you said

I was the only one



You thought i'd cry

(You-thought-i'd-cry)

You thought i'd lay

Down and die

You thought

There's no

Hetting over you

(Ha-ha)



And all this time

(All-this-time)

You've been having

Your fun

I've been having

Some fun too



Cause' it

Takes one to know one

Congrats

You've met your match

You think I'd lie here

Heartbroken

But the knife

Is in your back

(In-your-back)



You left your suit

You left your tie

And looked me in the eye

And swore that it

Was business baby

(Yeah right)



And when you left

I got a call

That started it all

And now

It's not your business

Ba-by



You thought i'd cry

(You-thought-i'd-cry)

You thought i'd lay

Down and die

You thought

There's no

Getting over you

(Ha-ha)



But all this time

(All-this-time)

You've been having

Your fun

I've been having

Some fun too



Cause' it

Takes one to know one

Congrats

You've met your match

You think i'd lie here

Heartbroken

(I'd-lie-here)

But the knife

Is in your back

(In-your-back)



You're such a wreck

The cutest accident

Makes so much sense

You'll come

Back to me

Oh

(Ahhhh)



And i'll let you



Hey

Huh

You're back



Cause' it takes one

To know one

Congrats

You've met your match

You think

I'd lie here

Heartbroken

(I'd-lie-here)

But the knife

Is in you're back

(In-your-back)



Cause' it

Takes one to know one

(Hi, nice to meet you)

Congrats

You've met your match

You think

I'd lie here

Heartbroken

(I'll-lie-here)

But the knife

Is in your back

(In-your-back)
