You F****n' Know

Influenced from Alanis Morissette's; You Oughta Know. From her album: Jagged Little Pill.

You F****n' Know

You should f****n’ know,

How broken felt so long ago

What fears crawl deep inside me

Born- naïve, in love; at nineteen

…a younger version of me

This f*g belittled like me

The boy that trashed his entire life, to fit yours

The one so evidently; 

that always talked of family

The fool who made an endless point, to impress you

 

Cuz the w***e for your bride

I became, by your side

Was the fool in your eyes

Only cared, compromised

F****n’ know it

F****n’ KNOW IT

Never thought, why I fought,

Couldn’t care, you were there

In your eyes I would stare

Now you know it

Now you OWN IT!

 

And I’m queer, to reduce you

To the s**t you dealt, till you withdrew

It’s unclear, when I came to

Or the men I fucked; to get over you

Over you, you, you

F****n’ know

 

Love scorn, fragile heart; sex worn, beggar

My soul not quite as smart, not what you prefer

Whats left here for me? Did you think you left me in piece?

Thought these miserable years would subdue three…

You were the way it should be, you were everything

How disposable really, can you make me?

 

Cuz the holes that you played

In the bed, without me

Never mind; never came

Without hurt, without blame

F****n’ know it

F****n’ OWN IT

 

And every time I took your s**t

Did you know, that id go, ever clime

Given time, till I made it

I F****N' MADE IT!

 

And I’m queer, to reduce you

To the s**t you dealt, till you withdrew

It’s unclear, when I came to

Or the men I fucked; to get over you

Over you, you, you

F****n’ know

You F****n' Know

Author's Note

I really wanted to reenact in my view, something of an art form that had influenced me throughout important events in my life. Believe it or not, making a reenactment of someone else's work without making it a parody is fuckin' hard. Folks think "angry" of my work so... Hope you enjoyed it and understand where most of it comes from. Cheers.

Raw! You definitely took the time to craft the "reenactment" of the song so it works for your subject matter. GREAT write.

I think you reworked this really well..its emotive to the point of painful..I love cursing in poetry..makes it real..I mean we all swear ..shouldn't that be reflected in our writing..? loved it.
