'Cause
You set me up (3x)
[Chorus 1]
Make another issue for me now
Thinkin' I'll forget this
Spread a little salt into my wounds
Watch it (You set me up)

Talk about all these games
I may have issues
They might be things I've done
But I know where they come from
'Cause
You set me up (3x)
[Outro]

Why'd you do it
You set me up
(repeat 4x)
You set me
You set me up
You set me, up
Make another issue for me now
Thinkin' I'll forget this
Spread a little salt into my wounds
Watch it
