Draw the cat eye sharp enough to kill a man

You did some bad things, but I'm the worst of them

Sometimes, I wonder which one'll be your last lie

They say looks can kill and I might try

[Pre-Chorus]

I don't dress for women

I don't dress for men

Lately, I've been dressin' for revenge

[Chorus]

I don't start shit, but I can tell you how it ends

Don't get sad, get even

So on the weekends

I don't dress for friends

Lately, I've been dressin' for revenge

[Verse 2]

She needed cold, hard proof, so I gave her some

She had the envelope, where you think she got it from?

Now she gets the house, gets the kids, gets the pride

Picture me thick as thieves with your ex-wife

[Pre-Chorus]

And she looks so pretty

Drivin' in your Benz

Lately, she's been dressin' for revenge

[Chorus]

She don't start shit, but she can tell you how it ends

Don't get sad, get even

So on the weekends

She don't dress for friends

Lately, she's been dressin' for revenge

[Bridge]

Ladies know what people want

Someone sweet and kind and fun

The lady simply had enough

[Verse 3]

While he was doin' lines and crossin' all of mine

Someone told his white-collar crimes to the FBI

[Pre-Chorus]

And I don't dress for villains

Or for innocents

I'm on my vigilante shit again

[Chorus]

I don't start shit, but I can tell you how it ends

Don't get sad, get even

So on the weekends

I don't dress for friends

Lately, I've been dressin' for revenge
