Not a hair out of place
Then she makes up her face
Then she makes up a lie

She's dressed fit to kill
And it takes all his will
Not to cry
She don't know that he knows
And he won't let it show
As she's leavin'

'Cause she'd not really cheatin'
She's just getting even
And he's goin' through hell
But he knows too well it's deserved
She's telling all the same lies
The same alibis that she's heard

Two wrongs don't make it right
But he knows tonight she's believin'
That she's not really cheatin'
She's just getting even

She's never been untrue
So this is all new
But she's catching on fast

Her cheatin' is fair
'Cause he's done his share
In the past
He has to understand
'Cause he's an old hand
At decievin'

Cause she's not really cheatin'
She's just getting even
And he's goin' through hell
But he knows too well it's deserved
She's telling all the same lies
The same alibis that she's heard

Two wrongs don't make it right
But he knows tonight she's believin'
That she's not really cheatin'
She's just getting even
