[Intro]
The back of my hand, the back of my hand
I thought I knew you like the back of my hand
You acted so cruel, you know I can't stand
The things that you do cause you know that you can
Build me up just to break me down
Thought you were the one but I see you get around
I wanna go nuts when I see you on the town
You built me up just to break me down
[Verse 1]
Your hit so cold
Your lips so bold
That every time I see you girl I'm hitting slow-mo
I used to have a heart of glass until it all froze
Maggie told me 'bout your little episode, no
I caught you fibbin'
What's the point in livin'
Sister, he's the winner so you give him the gold ribbon
I caught you lyin'
Now what's the point in tryin'
I never thought you'd do me like that
Now I'm stuck here with all your little lies
And it's your fault I don't recognize
[Chorus]
The back of my hand, the back of my hand
I thought I knew you like the back of my hand
You acted so cruel, you know I can't stand
The things that you do 'cause you know that you can
The limo pulled up, I saw your new man
Bet he wouldn't hold up to the back of my hand
The back of my hand, the back of my hand
I thought I knew you like the back of my hand, girl
[Verse 2]
Late night, girl
Good morning
I called your phone and I could kind of hear some moaning
I crossed the line and all the signs were kind of warning
I saw the future like a motherfucking omen
It's my decision to go with my suspicions
Black magic woman, I believe in superstition
The way you treat me, you might as well be tricking
I'm leaving and I'll never come back, no
Now I'm stuck here with all your little lies
And it's your fault i don't recognize
[Chorus]
The back of my hand, the back of my hand
I thought I knew you like the back of my hand
You acted so cruel, you know I can't stand
The things that you do 'cause you know that you can
The limo pulled up, I saw your new man
Bet he wouldn't hold up to the back of my hand
The back of my hand, the back of my hand
I thought I knew you like the back of my hand, girl
[Bridge]
All the lovin', the bed we made, they're all lies
Girl, I hung in forever hey, I tried
All the fun and the letters, babe: They're all lies
Now it's done, and forget it, babe, now I'm wise
Now I'm stuck here with all your little lies
And it's your fault I don't recognize
[Chorus]
The back of my hand, the back of my hand
I thought I knew you like the back of my hand
You acted so cruel, you know I can't stand
The things that you do 'cause you know that you can
The limo pulled up, I saw your new man
Bet he wouldn't hold up to the back of my hand
The back of my hand, the back of my hand
I thought I knew you like the back of my hand, girl
You acted so cruel, you know I can't stand
The things that you do 'cause you know that you can
The limo pulled up, I saw your new man
Bet he wouldn't hold up to the back of my hand
The back of my hand, the back of my hand
I thought I knew you like the back of my hand, girl
