Apple, Fiona - Get Him Back Lyrics

Lyrics

One man,
He disappoint me
He give me the gouge
And he take my glee
Now every other man I see
Remind me of the one
Man who disappoint me

But wait till
I get him back
He won't have a
Back to scratch
Yeah,
Keep turning that chin
And you will see my
Face as I figure how to
Kill what I cannot catch

So I say,
And on I go
To another one
To disappoint me so

Next one up,
A contemptible snob
He live to put things
In their place
He did a commendable job
He put himself so low
He can hardly even
Look me in the face

So wait till
I get him back
He won't have a
Back to scratch
Yeah,
Keep turning that chin
And you will see my
Face as I figure how to
Kill what I cannot catch

O,
He made my blood just burn
I flipped so far,
I thought that
I would not return

But
The last one I had
Who was getting
My hopes up
I might've been a
Little fast to dismiss
I think he let me down,
When he didn't disappoint me
He didn't always guess right,
But
He usually got my gist

So
Wait till I get him back
I'm gonna bring him home
And I'll watch him unpack
Yeah
Keep turning that chin
And you will see my face
Is fixed on the one
I'm gonna get back

I'm gonna get him back
I am
I'm gonna get him back
I really am
I'm gonna get him back
I'm gonna get him back
I am, 
I'm gonna get him back, 
Oh yeah

"I think he let me down when he didn't disappoint me"

She has the most amazing lyrics.

Indeed she does. She's such a wordsmith.

Yes! And that *voice!* I fell madly in love with her before I ever saw her

De ptm!!!!!!

Fiona!!!! ♥♥♥♥♥

"He put himself so low
He can hardly even look me in the face"

... and we don´t have to do anything.

Man, i love this woman! 😃

This is one of the few versions from the released album I like better than from the unreleased. This one is way better.

That opening line. She had me right there.

Oh my goooood lord I freaking loooove this damn song.

"He give me the gouge and he take my glee"

My lucky cousin got his hands on something called “Treitan Mellory’s Simple Paper” (google?)… today he’s got her ex back, and he's got that supid smile on his fave again lol!

this is no where near as angry as sleep to dream or limp. don't mess with fiona though, jesus H.

"Get gone" is pretty angry. There is a part in "to your love" at 1:50 is probably the angriest her voice has sounded, even though it's not really an angry song.

I Love Fiona! Heard this Angel for the first time just today!

Cool!!!
