Almost every reference to "you" can be really inverted to reflect right back on "him."
Example: He says "Lucky You" but what he could just as easily be saying "Unlucky me." She has no more involvement in the relationship at all- he sees that she has moved on and isn't troubled by it.
Nearly everything can be turned around to examine himself. It isn't she who is never getting rid of him in doing every mundane activity such as getting a drink, it is he who goes through each part of his day being reminded of her.
The last "Lucky You" is different than the earlier "Lucky you"s. The earlier ones bitterly reference the enthusiasm that the girl at one point would have expressed if she had known that he belonged to her. Things went wrong, however, in a way that he finds intolerable and is expressed in the twist of the last "Lucky You." This last Lucky You references the harsh contrast between his inability to let go of the relationship and her ease in erasing him from her thoughts. He wants nothing more than to be able to clear his head of her, but can't. Because she can, she is the lucky one.
My take on "You wake up in the bed you make, I think you made a big mistake":
He was not in control of the relationship. He feels like she found him and then broke him. I think of the phrase "You reap what you sow"- she became uncomfortable with the path that she, herself, had selected in him and then broke it off. This seems cruel to him- and he thinks it was a mistake of her to capture his heart only to break it. She shouldn't have made his bed if she didn't want to wake up in it.

Brilliant break up song.
