I wake up every evening
With a big smile on my face
And it never feels out of place
And you're still probably working
At a nine to five pace
I wonder how bad that tastes.

When you see my face,
Hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell.
When you walk my way,
Hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell.

Now where's your picket fence, love?
And where's that shiny car?
And did it ever get you far?
You've never seemed so dense, love.
I've never seen you fall so hard.
And do you know where you are?

And truth be told, I miss you.
And truth be told, I'm lying.

Refrao....

When you find a man that's worth a damn,
and treats you well,
Then he's a fool,
You're just as well,
Hope it gives you hell.
I hope it gives you hell.

Tomorrow you'll be thinkin' to yourself
“Yeah, when did it all go wrong?”
But the list goes on and on.

And truth be told, I miss you.
And truth be told, I'm lying.

Refrao

When you find a man that's worth a damn,
and treats you well,
Then he's a fool,
You're just as well,
Hope it gives you hell.

Now you'll never see
What you've done to me.
You can take back your memories
They're no good to me.
And here's all your lies,
You can look me in the eyes
With the sad, sad look at you S.O.L.

Refrao

When you find a man that's worth a damn,
and treats you well,
Then he's a fool,
You're just as well,
Hope it gives you hell.

When you see my face,
Hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell. (Hope it gives you hell.)
When you walk my way,
Hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell. (Hope it gives you hell.)

When you hear this song,
And you sing along
Oh, you'll never tell. (Oh, you'll never tell.)
Then you're the fool
You're just as well
Hope it gives you hell. (Hope it gives you hell.)

When you hear this song
I hope that it will give you hell. (Hope it gives you hell.)
You can sing along I hope that it
Would suit you well.
