Songs that say "I'm glad to be rid of you"...
 

My court date to try and amend the child/spousal support is on Thursday. On that day, Mr. Ass wants the Jetta back.

*shrug*

I plan on giving it back to him on Thursday. But, as a parting gift, I plan on leaving a CD in the changer with some choice songs.

Some of the things that my friend and I have thought up so far are:

Tainted Love by Soft Cell

(I hate) Everything about You by Ugly Kid Joe

etc...

If you have any ideas, throw em here!

Thanks!!

One song you may like is Tina Turner's 'When The Heartache Is Over':

" Time to move on with my life now
Leaving the past all behind
I can make my own decisions
It was only a matter of time
Sometimes I look back in anger
Thinking about all the pain
But I know that I'm stronger without you
And that I'll never need you again

When the heartache is over
I know I won't be missing you
Won't look over my shoulder
Cause I know that I can live without you "

ALANIS MORISSETTE 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 theatre
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, till you died
But you're still alive.....

How about Green Day's "Good Riddance"
Another turning point
A fork stuck in the road
Time grabs you by the wrist
Directs you where to go
So make the best of this test
And don't ask why
It's not a question
But a lesson learned in time
It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

So take the photographs
And still frames in your mind
Hang it on a shelf of
Good health and good time
Tattoos of memories
And dead skin on trial
For what it's worth
It was worth all the while
It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life

It's something unpredictable
But in the end is right
I hope you had the time of your life



Or, you could always go with GLoria Gaynor's "I Will Survive"

OH PLEASE NO!

Leave Disco 30 years in the past where it belongs.

:cool:

How about Ben Folds' "Song for the Dumped"? Though it's not appropriate for your situation per se, it does say "I'm glad to be rid of you."

So you wanted
to take a break
Slow it down some and
have some space

Well **** you too
Give me my money back
Give me my money back
you bitch
I want my money back
(And don't forget to give
me back my black T-Shirt)

I wish I hadn't
bought you dinner
Right before you dumped me
on your front porch
Give me my money back
Give me my money back
You bitch
I want my money back
and don't forget...

This was going to be my suggestion!

Also, though they're not gender appropriate, but I still crank them up and shout, er, sing along:

I Used to Love Her ~Guns 'N Roses
Don't Go Away Mad ~Motley Crue

How about...

Like It Or Not, by Genesis

Ah, don't you know, I've been on my own
But I'm coming home.
And I'd like you to be there,
I feel a little cold in the air,
And you're not anywhere.
You're just another face, I used to know.
But there is still a chance to hold on to our love,
'Cos I gave you everything, everything I had.

Ooh, like it or not
You have done it this time
And like it or not, I've had enough.

Ooh, like it or not
There's a lot I could say
'Cos I've got a lot on my mind.

It won't be very long
You're just another face
That I once used to know
And I gave you everything,
But what have I got to show? Oh Oh

Oh, like it or not
You are out on the street
And like it or not
That's where you will stay.

Oh, like it or not
There's another thing darling,
Well I just could not stand another day
'Cos if you want to know,
That there is still a chance to hold on to our love
'Cos I gave you everything
Everything I had - Everything I had.

It's been a long, been a long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Oh it's been a long, been a long long long time
But if I'm right or if I'm wrong, does it matter anyway?

It's been a long long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Ooh it's been a long long long long time
But if I'm right or if I'm wrong, does it matter anyway?

Ooh it's been a long long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I loved anyone.
Oh it's been a long, been a long long long time
I'm right, if I'm wrong, does it matter anyway?

It's been a long long, long long long time
Since I held anybody, since I held anyone.
