"Just Desserts" lyrics - MARINA AND THE DIAMONDS
Oh, heartbreak's hard when you don't have a plastic heart
You sucked me in through the cinnamon stars
'Cause you tasted so bitter but the bitter was sweet
I'm the lovelorn princess and I'm yours to eat
I gave you too much, gave you too much to touch
Was the hardcore iron through the velvet glove
You were a lullaby, and you had me blind
But now I laugh 'cause you're the one who's being left behind
I see you cry
Now that the shoe's on the other foot (Yeah)
Now that the shoe's on the other foot
You suddenly decided to knock on wood
Waking everybody in the neighbourhood
Telling everybody that I'm no good
Karma came around like I knew it would
Like I knew it would
And it feels so good when the shoe is put
On the other foot
Yeah baby, I know that it hurts
When you're about to get your just desserts
Oh, heartbreak's hard, harder than glittering cars
Harder than living life fast, harder than
Crashing then burning, hope that you learned your lesson
(I hope that you learned your lesson)
They always said I was a mess of a girl
Ever since you stepped your toes into my perfect world
You flipped me upside down but I see clear from here
That you're a mess of a boy, you'll cry these tears for years
Look in the mirror, baby
Now that the shoe's on the other foot (Yeah)
Now that the shoe's on the other foot
You suddenly decided to knock on wood
Waking everybody in the neighbourhood
Telling everybody that I'm no good
Karma came around like I knew it would
Like I knew it would
And it feels so good when the shoe is put
On the other foot
Yeah baby, I know that it hurts
When you're about to get your just desserts
I'm glad that you crashed and burned
Guys like you, they never learn (Never learn)
Baby, revenge is sweet
When I am playing you on repeat
Now that the shoe's on the other foot
You suddenly decided to knock on wood
Waking everybody in the neighbourhood
Telling everybody that I'm no good
Karma came around like I knew it would
Like I knew it would
And it feels so good when the shoe is put
On the other foot
Now that the shoe's on the other foot
Karma came around like you knew it would
Like you knew it would
