Payback Is a Dog

[Verse 1]
By mistake, I heard
Some news about you
I just turned my head
And closed my ears
It hurt so bad

[Verse 2]
First, I tried to run (First I tried to run)
I paused a moment
Just to catch my breath
And there, I saw how big a fool I was
To love you so
And when I turned my back
I had nowhere to go

[Pre-Chorus]
Remember when I told you
Not long ago
If you wanted somebody new
To let me know?
One day you'll know
Just how it feels

[Chorus]
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
Payback is a dog

[Verse 3]
It seems like only yesterday
We chased our rainbow
Now our pot of gold
Has turned to worthless, useless sand, it seems
It was just a dream
And I just woke up
I don't have anything

[Pre-Chorus]
Now you seem to act so strange
I told you so
Only got yourself to blame
Wanna let you know
One day you'll see
Just how it feels

[Chorus]
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
Payback is a dog
(Dog, it's a dog)
