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

"U.N.C.O.U.P.L.E.D" from Starlight Express (it's a train motif using Country Western pastiche):

I've been U.N.C.O.U.P.L.E.D.
I can't bring myself to say it. No siree.
I'm a carriage with no marriage
I'm a van without a man
I've been U.N.C.O.U.P.L.E.D.
Was I corroded or overloaded?
Maybe I shamed him
Who could have blamed him?
If he thought me second-class
Went in search of chrome and brass
Went to find some other fool like me.
And I'm just U.N.C.O.U.P.L.E.D.
I can't seem to stop C.R.Y.I.N.G.
People look and me and think,
"There she goes the missing link"
She's been U.N.C.O.U.P.L.E.D.
And I'm just U.N.C.O.U.P.L.E.D.
But I'll get my R.E.V.E.N.G.E.
He'll come crawling back one day
And I'll turn to him and say,
"Go away, you B.A.S.T.A.R.D."

A couple by Eurythmics:

"You Hurt Me (And I Hate You)"

Well the sun came up this morning
Like a burning red balloon.
It broke into my window
And it slipped across the room.
It spread itself upon me
Like the smell of sweet perfume.
I was sleeping like a baby.

I'm not a saviour
I'm not a saint
I'm not an angel
I'm not that quaint

Don't need a preacher
To be that wise.
Don't need a teacher
I've got my eyes.

You hurt me & I hate you
You hurt me

A history of bitterness
You have left a blazing trail.
If you had been a hammer
I'd be a broken nail.
You gave me nothing
Nothing but regrets.
Don't think it's over
It's not over yet.

You hurt me & I hate you
You hurt me.

And everytime
You try to fool yourself
You've only got yourself
To blame.
And every lie you ever
Told yourself
Will all come back to you
One day.

"Thorn In My Side"

Thorn in my side.
You know that’s all you ever were.
A bundle of lies.
You know that’s all that it was worth.
I should have known better
But I trusted you at first.
I should have known better
But I got what I deserved.

To run away from you
Was all that I could do.
To run away from you
Was all that I could do.

Thorn in my side.
You know that’s all you’ll ever be.
So don’t think you know better
’cause that’s what you mean to me.
I was feeling complicated.
I was feeling low.
Now everytime I think of you
I shiver to the bone.
