So I heard you're going to Berkeley
to visit all the relatives of what was your ex-wife when you first met
in the RV
that you bough to carry both of us across the USA and never did
and that's okay with me
because I'm traveling to San Francisco almost on what could be called a whim
and there's this boy you see
and he's a million better things than you so all I have to say is
(Chorus)
Go get fucked in California,
it's what I'll be doing so I think it's only fair.
Go fuck yourself in California-
no one else is going to now that I'm not there.
Did you know you nearly killed me?
I was halfway around the bend because I couldn't even call you on the phone
and you were bad to me-
it isn't right to leave the girl you love so inexplicably alone.
Your wife made fun of me
and it didn't occur to her that you had broken up with her before
for infidelity.
But you can keep the whore, she's not my problem anymore
(Chorus)
And so that you're aware
I was only being nice when I said
I didn't mind that you liked Taylor Swift
And I'm compelled to share
that I think that you're a little old to be so pussy-whipped
But that isn't fair-
it's not like you don't care,
it isn't your fault you met a good girl when the bad one was still there
and that you loved her, as far as I'm aware
But still
(Chorus)
