I Wanna Be Around lyrics

I wanna be around to pick up the pieces

When somebody breaks your heart,

Somebody twice as smart as I.

Somebody who will swear to be true

Like you used to do to me,

Who'll leave you learn

That misery loves company, wait and see.

I wanna be around to see how you take it

When she starts to play your game

Starts handing you the same old lie

And that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet,

As I sit there applauding from a front row seat,

When somebody breaks your heart

Like you broke mine.

I wanna be around to see how she does it

When he breaks your heart to bits,

Oh, baby, let's see if the puzzle fits, mmh, so fine

Yeah, that's when I'll discover that revenge is sweet,

As I sit there applauding from a front row seat,

When somebody breaks your heart,

Yeah, breaks your heart like you broke mine

Yes, when somebody breaks your heart,

Oooh, like you broke mine
