Recently re-discovered The Like and thought I'd contribute this bop.
Be aware that the chorus is phrased slightly differently each time.

If I could kick his head in, fickle little boyfriend, I'd be satisfied...
If I could smack some sense into his senses, I might feel all right...

'Cause I spent the weekend waiting all alone

Verse 2:

If I could snap that neck, that broken record train neck, I might feel okay...
If he could speak the truth, but just be sorry, that would be the day...
G+G
But he made me crazy, thinking I was wrong

That he wasn't cheating all along...

But I gave him everything that I could give;
AbAb F minorFm
Now he's gonna wish he'd never lived...
