Since you`ve been gone i feel so much better
Cause i saw how mean you could be
I used to want some explanation
Now all i want is my Patsy Cline CD
How i`ve waited for today
When i could finally say
You jerk
You jerk
You are such a jerk
There are other words
But they just don`t work
Sometimes i wish i`d mailed you that letter
That said the things i dare not say
Instead i set the thing on fire
I had to say this out loud anyway
I`m so glad i found the nerve
To say what you deserve
You jerk
You jerk
You are such a jerk
There are other words
But they just don`t work
They try to be so cool
Insult you like a fool
Never take your call when you`re nobody at all
Until you`re somebody
and then they want to be your friend
How comes jerks don`t know they`re jerks
(I don`t know)
So next time someone makes you feel little
Just sing this song inside you head
And like a great big cartoon bubble
These lovely words will dance above their head
How i`ve waited for today
When i could finally say
You jerk
You jerk
You are such a jerk
There are other words
But they just don`t work
