[Intro: thank u, next]
Thought I'd end up with Sean
But he wasn't a match
Wrote some songs about Ricky
Now I listen and laugh
Even almost got married
And for Pete, I'm so thankful
Wish I could say‚ "Thank you" to Malcolm
'Cause he was an angel

[Pre-Chorus: Stay]
Round and around and around and around we go (around we go)
Oh now‚ tell me now‚ tell me now, tell me now, you know

[Chorus: Since U Been Gone, thank u, next, Somebody That I Used To Know]
Since you been gone
Thank you‚ next (next)
Thank you, next
Now you're just somebody that I used to know
I'm so moving on (yeah, yeah)
Thank you‚ next
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

[Verse 1: Since U Been Gone, thank u, next]
Here's the thing
We started out friends
It was cool, but it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah (yeah, yeah)
Since you been gone
(I'm so fuckin' grateful for my ex)
One taught me love
One taught me patience
One taught me pain
Now, I'm so amazing
[Pre-Chorus: Stay]
Yeah, around and around and around and around we go (around we go)
Oh now, tell me now, tell me now, tell me now you know

[Chorus: Since U Been Gone, thank u, next, Somebody That I Used To Know]

[Breakdown: We Are Never Getting Back Together, Since U Been Gone, thank u, next]
We are never ever, ever getting back together
We are never ever, ever getting back together
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever, ever
Ever getting back together (Since you been gone)
We are never ever, ever getting back together
We are never ever, ever getting back together (Since you been gone, yeah, yeah)
You go talk to your friends, talk to my friends, talk to me
But we are never ever, ever
(I'm so fuckin' grateful for my ex)
