I'm in the business of misery, let's take it from the top
She's got a body like an hourglass that's ticking like a clock
It's a matter of time before we all run out
When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth
I waited eight long months
She finally set him free
I told him I couldn't lie, he was the only one for me
Two weeks and we had caught on fire
She's got it out for me, but I wear the biggest smile
[Chorus]
Whoa, well I never meant to brag
But I've gotten what I wanted now
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But God does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could then you know you would
'Cause God it just feels so
It just feels so good
Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change
Once a whore, you're nothing more, I'm sorry that'll never change
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged
I'm sorry honey, I passed out, now look this way
Well there's a million other girls who do it just like you
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who
They want and what they like, it's easy if you do it right
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!
[Chorus]
I watched his wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving
Whoa, well I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
[Chorus]
She's got a body like an hourglass that's ticking like a clock
It's a matter of time before we all run out
When I thought he was mine, she caught him by the mouth
I waited eight long months
She finally set him free
I told him I couldn't lie, he was the only one for me
Two weeks and we had caught on fire
She's got it out for me, but I wear the biggest smile
[Chorus]
Whoa, well I never meant to brag
But I've gotten what I wanted now
Whoa, it was never my intention to brag
To steal it all away from you now
But God does it feel so good
'Cause I got him where I want him now
And if you could then you know you would
'Cause God it just feels so
It just feels so good
Second chances they don't ever matter, people never change
Once a whore, you're nothing more, I'm sorry that'll never change
And about forgiveness, we're both supposed to have exchanged
I'm sorry honey, I passed out, now look this way
Well there's a million other girls who do it just like you
Looking as innocent as possible to get to who
They want and what they like, it's easy if you do it right
Well I refuse, I refuse, I refuse!
[Chorus]
I watched his wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving you
Just watch my wildest dreams come true
Not one of them involving
Whoa, well I never meant to brag
But I got him where I want him now
[Chorus]

also the whore did it to me first, after a year and a half relationship, what goes around comes around biatch!
to the people that said she's being judgmental or whatever, she's pissed, she'll say whatever she likes. i doubt she literally means this girl is a streetwalker and will never amount to anything more in life, it's just a word used to insult someone you're mad at.
and i absolutely love the line "i never meant to brag", she waited patiently for this guy, she didn't purposely try to break them up or be like those million other girls looking as innocent as possible to get what they want etc etc, she didn't exactly intend for it to happen the way it did, but it did, and she is bloody happy about it. i never meant for it to go down this way, i never meant to rub it in your face, but you're a whore and i hate you .. soo i will.
"I waited eight long months she finally set him free" - Sherri broke off the marriage after she found Chad cheating on her with Hayley.
From "Sad" -
"Hardly waiting 'til the bed was warm, He closed his eyes and said "I'm feeling torn".
How could I be so unendingly forced into this course." shows he was being adulterous.
"Shifting from side to side Can't make up his God-given mind why don't you just go? She's waiting"
and "I feel sad For you, so sad. You'll be left alone and broken Bleeding from the heart when he doesn't come home. Oh honey I am telling you, you'd better think about it." Is Sherri warning Hayley that it's not the girl, it's the man that's the problem. He cheated once, he'll do it again.
but alas, Sherri got out lucky, cause if chad could cheat on Sherri for Hayley then he can cheat on Hayley for someone elce.
"Misery Business is about this girl who came into my circle of friends and she used her sexuality to get some kind of acceptance. it really was a dark time in my life because i was in love with the person she was taking advantage of. it was weird to see someone have that much power over another person. manipulation is such a serious thing, especially when sex is the main tool. it was good to get all that out in the song - i held it in for a long time."
I saw Paramore live recently and they were incredible, I lost my voice after screaming this song... It's just incredible, when I first heard it I just loved the bitchy nature of it, my favourite line is: "I watched his wildest dreams come true, not one of them involving you". Harsh.
It was a song written by the ghost behind the music industry in 1985 underneath another band's song, hayley and the ghost used time travel to help free him and get him back into his vessel, he aims to be jesus some day. It's a good song and was supposed to free him, but her weak orgasm button and love of dark haired hollywood freaks left the ghost grasping at straws. Now he has to rely on 'boon rape party for freedom.
he still loves her to death btw.
What I wouldn't give to sing this song! But of course, only Hayley with the 3-octave vocal range and largest set of lungs can sing songs like this, so I guess I'll have to keep dreaming :D
