about

One day I picked up my acoustic guitar and just started playing and singing the song like this. It was born that suddenly and it just seemed to fit. The next day I had an acoustic show and I stuck it into the set and it was a total hit. Since then it´s been a standard in our usual electric show.
Being Canadian, I have a special soft spot for all things Canadian (we recorded another classic Canadian hit on our last album: New Orleans is Sinking – The Tragically Hip), and so covering such a great artist like Alanis is a total pleasure…even if the lyrics are clearly meant for ¨a chick¨ to sing them.

You Oughta Know is definitely one of our favorite songs on the album.

lyrics

YOU OUGHTA KNOW

I want you to know that I’m happy for you
I wish nothing but the best for you both
An older version of me
Is she perverted like me
Would she go down on you in a theater
Does she speak eloquently
And would she have your baby
I’m sure she’d make a really excellent mother

’cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn’t able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you’d hold me
Until you died, ’til you died
But you’re still alive

And I’m here to remind you
Of the mess you left when you went away
It’s not fair to deny me
Of the cross I bear that you gave to me
You, you, you oughta know

You seem very well, things look peaceful
I’m not quite as well, I thought you should know
Did you forget about me Mr. Duplicity
I hate to but you in the middle of dinner
It was a slap in the face how quickly I was replaced
Are you thinking of me when you fuck her

’cause the love that you gave that we made
Wasn’t able to make it enough for you to be open wide, no
And every time you speak her name
Does she know how you told me you’d hold me
Until you died, ’til you died
But you’re still alive
