Sweet Revenge Songtext
von Chris Cornell

Everybody out for my blood
Everybody want my percent
I don′t wanna start going off
I don't wanna start talking shit

They just wanna take what is mine
How much more can you get?
I already know what they want
I already know what they spent

Now-a-days I think like a loner
But they looking for blood
I′m about to get what they owe
Gonna get back what they stole

Let me talk to the fans
Every time I walk in the door
They just wanna take my advance
But I won't stop till they know, walk with me now


When I retaliate you're gonna know
The mourning of sweet revenge
The pain and suffering will come to those
When I get even, it′s such a sweet revenge
Sweet revenge, sweet revenge, sweet revenge

I bet they won′t stop till I quit
I bet they won't leave till I go
Ain′t gonna hurt me a bit
One monkey won't stop the show

I′ve been through dirt and sand
Traveled to foreign lands
Been to hell and come back
I ain't gonna go there again

Why they wanna cause me to trip?
Why they wanna see me take a fall?
They wanna get something for nothing
Wanna see me jumpin′ and runnin'

Let me talk to the fans
Never gonna stop doing this
Till I'm deep in the ground
I′m way too far to give in, walk with me now


When I retaliate you′re gonna know
The morning of sweet revenge
The pain and suffering will come to those
When I get even, it's such a sweet revenge
Sweet revenge, sweet revenge, sweet revenge

Getting even, it′s the sweetest revenge
Getting even, it's the sweetest revenge
Getting even, it′s the sweetest revenge
Getting even, it's the sweetest revenge

When I retaliate you′re gonna know
The morning of sweet revenge
The pain and suffering will come to those
When I get even, it's such a sweet revenge
Sweet revenge, sweet revenge, sweet revenge

Getting even, it's the sweetest revenge
Getting even, it′s the sweetest revenge
Getting even, it′s the sweetest revenge
Getting even, it's the sweetest revenge
