• (What, a whore, no, no, no)
  
  See, I don't know why, I liked you so much
  I gave you all of my trust.
  I told you I loved you
  Now that's all down the drain, you put me through pain
  I wanna let you know how I feel.
  
  Fuck what I said - it don't mean shit now
  Fuck the presents - might as well throw 'em out
  Fuck all those kisses - they didn't mean Jack
  Fuck you, you ho' - I don't want you back
  
  Fuck what I said - it don't mean shit now
  Fuck the presents - might as well throw 'em out
  Fuck all those kisses - they didn't mean Jack
  Fuck you, you ho' - I don't want you back
  
  You thought, you could, keep this shit from me
  Yeah, you burnt bitch, I heard the story.
  You played me, you even gave him head
  Now you're asking for me back? You're just another hack
  Look elsewhere, cause you're done with me
  
  Fuck what I said - it don't mean shit now
  Fuck the presents - might as well throw 'em out
  Fuck all those kisses - they didn't mean Jack
  Fuck you, you ho' - I don't want you back
  
  Fuck what I said - it don't mean shit now
  Fuck the presents - might as well throw 'em out
  Fuck all those kisses - they didn't mean Jack
  Fuck you, you ho' - I don't want you back
  
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  
  Your questions, that I care, you can ask anyone
  I even said "You were my great one"
  Now it's over, but I do admit I'm sad
  It hurts real bad
  I can't swear back, cause I love the ho'
  
  Fuck what I said - it don't mean shit now
  Fuck the presents - might as well throw 'em out
  Fuck all those kisses - they didn't mean Jack
  Fuck you, you ho' - I don't want you back
  
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah (it's all shit now...)
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah (they don't mean Jack)
  Oh, oh, uh, huh, yeah (I won't take you back) Lyrics licensed and provided by LyricFind

• Daniel from Winchester, OhNice plan Lando i think you should do it
• Michaela from Usa, NyLandon!I liked the way you handled the situation;with the song! =)
• Landon from Winchester, OhThis song reminds me of my first girlfriend. I met up with her at a high-school dance. She asked me out, and I accepted. Her and I were four years apart, but I didn't know until later that it would cause problems. Sure enough, her dad said he didn't like me and after that this girl started becoming a snot. She broke up with me after being with me for 35 days. And two months later, she wants me back! I'm thinking about calling her at 3 in the morning and getting in contact with her answering machine, and letting this entire song play to make her see how I feel about her!
• A.j. from Chicago, IlHe's a 1-hit wonder already? The song was only like 3 years ago. He still has the rest of his life to make another hit cuz he's only about 25.
• Dave from Cardiff, Wales"Frankie" admitted in 2005 that she has never met Eamon in her life and that she only released a "reply" song as a short cut to fame. The whole thing was a conspiracy between two rival record labels, Jive and Marro. Eamon was not at all bothered by the reply song, as he received half of Frankie's royalties for it, adding to his own royalties for the original song. As Eamon explained in 2006: "Just to clear it up once and for all, I was not involved with 'F.U.R.B.' I have never met Frankie and she is definitely not my girlfriend or ex-girlfriend. The only way I was associated with it was when I was asked for licensing permission by Frankie's representatives, which makes me a writer on her song by copyright law. But I really didn't expect all this to come out of it - they are having fun with it, it's cool, but in the end they are paying me for their 15 minutes of fame and I welcome her to my world of Ho-Wop!" Eamon actually did go on to have a second UK hit with "I Love Them Ho's (Ho-Wop)", so he is not a one-hit wonder in the strictest sense
• Mike from Hueytown , AlIve never heard this song before but if it makes women angry then I already love it hahahahaha
• Mjn Seifer from Not Listed For Personal Reason, EnglandWell I do, So there.
• Sara from Traverse City, MiThis song is annoying, I don't like it.
