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
