It sheds some light on the downfall of the relationship between Adele and her ex-boyfriend, which inspired almost all of the songs on the album. Here, we see Adele has developed mixed feelings about this guy. On one hand, she’s realized that, despite her best efforts, her love for him will remain indefinitely unrequited—no matter what she does, he always “goes back” to an old flame. She’s palpably frustrated, and states that he’s not even good enough to treat her in such a way. In the choruses, she rails against her cheating lover who has made her feel unwanted by telling him that really, he’s the temporary one who doesn’t mean anything. Yet everywhere else in the song, Adele is still attached to him. The way he mistreats her only makes her more eager to attract him, to the point where she’s stuck in a cycle of daydreaming about what he’ll say to her when it does work out… even as it still doesn’t. 25 Best Revenge Songs SZA, Taylor Swift & More They had it coming. There can’t always be room for forgiveness. And when the time for revenge comes knocking at your door, Billboards got your soundtrack covered. There’s been a longstanding tradition in music of using songs to get even, whether by airing out private details in tell-all lyrics or fantasizing about everything from property damage to murder. In the ambiguous worlds of pop, hip-hop, rock n’ roll and country, keying cars, smashing windows and even homicide are fair game. Just look at SZAs Billboard Hot 100 chart-topper “Kill Bill.” Based on its commercial success, it’s clear that millions agree there’s nothing more cathartic than daydreaming about murdering not just your former boyfriend, but his new girl, too. Or, there’s the Stevie Nicks method of penning a song so good, your ex — who just so happens to be your bandmate — has no choice but to perform it with you over and over as a constant reminder of everything he did wrong. Why move on when you can get the last laugh? That’s definitely the mindset of many women in country music, for whom songs about unleashing your inner crazy are basically rites of passage. Even Taylor Swift has continued this tradition — set by the likes of Reba McEntire, The Chicks, Carrie Underwood and Miranda Lambert — in her post-country pop music but more on all of those ladies later. The point is, no matter the genre of music, and no matter the method of justice, songs about sweet revenge always hit the spot — that is, if an axe isn’t an option. Keep reading to see Billboards top 25 favorites below. Billie Eilish, "Watch" If Eilish’s pop-punk masterpiece “Happier Than Ever” is red hot rage, then “Watch” from her debut EP is cold, calculated, seething anger. And as far as revenge goes, it can be much more effective to whisper with a smile on your face than scream uncontrollably that, oh yeah, I set your car on fire. Best revenge lyric “I’ll sit and watch your car burn with the fire that you started in me/ But you never came back to ask it out.” Listen here. Doja Cat, "Ain't Sh-t" Doja Cat sees your crimes against men’s cars and raises you this approach telling his mom on him. On this Planet Her standout, you can practically see the maniacal grin on the rapper’s face as she gleefully threatens to tattle on a man who just, well, ain’t s–t. Best revenge lyrics “I’m not gon’ key your car, I’ll call your f–king mom/ You should have paid my rent, go get a f–king job.” Listen here. Taylor Swift, "Vigilante Sh-t" Taylor Swift has oft visited the idea of revenge in her songs over the years, from 2006’s “Picture to Burn” to 2021’s “No Body No Crime” and everything in between — 2010’s “Better Than Revenge,” 2014’s “Bad Blood,” 2017’s “Look What You Made Me Do,” etc. In doing so, she’s become a master at writing about the topic, as evidenced by Midnights fan-favorite “Vigilante S–t.” On this Billie Eilish-coded track, she fantasizes about ratting enemies out to the FBI and taking it all in divorce settlements, all while wearing fiercely cutthroat eyeliner. Best revenge lyric “I don’t start s–t, but I can tell you how it ends/ Don’t get sad, get even.” Listen here. The All-American Rejects, "Gives You Hell" The best revenge is always knowing that you’re doing way better in life than your ex. And knowing that your very presence is enough to piss them off? Icing on the cake. Best revenge lyric “When you see my face, hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell/ When you walk my way, hope it gives you hell, hope it gives you hell.” Listen here. Fleetwood Mac, "Silver Springs" Image Credit Courtesy Photo Nothing will ever, ever top the badassery of Stevie Nicks writing a song about getting long-term revenge on Lindsey Buckingham, who not only had to record it as her Fleetwood Mac bandmate, but had to perform it over and over again in concerts with a furious Nicks staring him down. Best revenge lyric “I’ll follow you down ’til the sound of my voice will haunt you/Give me just a chance/ You’ll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you.” Listen above. Demi Lovato, "Sorry Not Sorry" “Sorry Not Sorry” is Demi Lovato’s highest-charting Hot 100 hit to date for a reason. An ode to hot girl summer before that was even a thing, this track proves that sometimes, revenge can be a whole party in and of itself. Best revenge lyric “Now, I’m out here lookin’ like revenge/ Feelin’ like a ten, the best I’ve ever been/ And, yeah, I know how bad it must hurt to see me like this/ But it gets worse.” Listen here. Reba McEntire, "The Night The Lights Went Out in Georgia" Who said you can’t seek revenge on someone else’s behalf? Reba McEntire covering Vicki Lawrence’s 1973 Hot 100-topper takes her brother’s cheating wife into her own hands on this pinnacle of country music storytelling — but if you’re going to follow her lead, just make sure no one else ends up taking the fall for you. Best revenge lyric “That’s one body that’ll never be found/ You see little sister don’t miss when she aims her gun.” Listen here. Chicago Cast, "Cell Block Tango" Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, Cicero, Lipschitz. “Cell Block Tango” from Chicago the musical gives not one, not two, but six detailed tutorials on how to snuff out a low-life husband and win a ticket to prison — but for these jailbirds, the tradeoff was totally worth it. Best revenge lyric “He only had himself to blame/ If you’d have been there/ If you’d have seen it/ I betcha you would have done the same.” Listen here. Lizzo, "Truth Hurts" There’s bloodthirsty, rage-driven revenge, and there’s Lizzo’s brand of revenge being completely, infuriatingly unbothered. Need to get under your ex-man’s skin? Letting him know that you’ve already found a new one on the Minnesota Vikings — plus several other contenders in his own friend group — is a great place to start. Best revenge lyric “So you can tell your friends, Shoot your shot,’ when you see ’em/ It’s OK, he already in my DMs.” Listen here. Justin Timberlake, "Cry Me A River" Even a river couldn’t extinguish this major burn. Long believed to be written about Britney Spears, whom Justin Timberlake believed to have been unfaithful, this scathing 2002 hit is basically the sonic equivalent to a raised middle finger. Best revenge lyric “The bridges were burned/ Now it’s your turn, to cry.” Listen here. Mariah Carey, "Obsessed" Mariah Carey had the best way of getting back at Eminem, who claimed he dated the Songbird Supreme in the 2000s. In response, she called him out for lying in a very obvious diss track dedicated to the real Slim Shady; dressed up as him in the music video; and undermined everything he had to say by posing one simple question why so obsessed? Best revenge lyric “Oh finally found a girl that you couldn’t impress/ Last man on the Earth still couldn’t hit this.” Listen here. The Chicks, "Goodbye Earl" Image Credit Courtesy Photo “Goodbye Earl” is the apex of revenge-murder songs. As the Chicks tell it, Earl simply needed to go nighty night forever after violently abusing his wife Wanda, who poisons him with the help of her best friend Mary Anne and a very special black-eyed peas recipe. It’s okay, though no one missed him anyway. Best revenge lyric “Why don’t you lay down and sleep, Earl/ Ain’t it dark wrapped up in that tarp, Earl?” Listen above. Maroon 5, "Wake Up Call" When passive aggressive subtweets just won’t satisfy your revenge needs, there’s always the option of murder — metaphorically speaking, of course. On this 2007 Maroon 5 classic, Adam Levine confesses to finding his with another man. His solution? “I had to shoot him dead.” Overkill? Literally. Best revenge lyric “I answer questions, never maybe/ And I’m not kind if you betray me/ So, who the hell are you to save me?” Listen here. Kelly Clarkson, "Since U Been Gone" Image Credit Courtesy Photo At times, revenge is best served in the form of a brag. Since its release, “Since U Been Gone” has empowered the heartbroken of the world to find solace in knowing their ex’s absence may actually have made their lives better — neener, neener, neener. Best revenge lyric “I’m so moving on, yeah, yeah/ Thanks to you, now I get what I want.” Listen above. Rihanna, "Take A Bow" There are moments when revenge must be closely calculated and actively sought out, and then there are moments when the opportunity literally comes knocking at your door. And when a blubbering ex shows up at Rihanna’s front stoop on this track, she rises to the occasion by absolutely decimating him in a three minute, 50 second roast session. No one does it like RiRi. Best revenge lyric “You look so dumb right now/ Standin’ outside my house/ Tryin’ to apologize/ You’re so ugly when you cry.” Listen here. Shakira, "Bzrp Music Sessions, Vol. 53" What do you do when the father of your children and partner of 12 years breaks up with you, then moves straight on with a girl half your age? If you’re Shakira, you drop one of the most blistering diss tracks of all time, airing out every single one of your grievances in unflinching detail. Best revenge lyric “Las mujeres ya no lloran, las mujeres facturan,” which translates to “Women no longer cry, women get paid.” Listen here. Nancy Sinatra, "These Boots Are Made For Walkin'" With a famously foreboding bass riff and vaguely ominous lyrics, Nancy Sinatra’s classic Hot 100 topper promises that karmic vengeance will be delivered no matter what — if not right away, then someday. And you’ll never see it coming. Are you ready, boots? Start walking. Best revenge lyric “You keep thinkin’ that you’ll never get burnt/ I just found me a brand new box of matches/ And what he knows you ain’t had time to learn.” Listen here. Beyoncé, "Sorry" Although “Irreplaceable” definitely deserves an honorable mention, “Sorry” takes listeners through a roller coaster of emotions that just can’t be topped. In response to infidelity, Queen Bey seeks revenge by doing everything from flipping him the bird to staying out late and making him worry, telling him to “suck my balls” and leaving him alone with nothing but a note to remember her by. Best revenge lyric “Now you gotta see me wilding, now I’m the one that’s lying/ And I don’t feel bad about it, it’s exactly what you get/ Stop interrupting my grinding/ I ain’t thinking ’bout you.” Listen here. Jazmine Sullivan, "Bust Your Windows" Image Credit Courtesy Photo Vehicle vandalism is a recurring theme in this list. Why? As Jazmine Sullivan very clearly explains, the math is simple if you break my heart, then I’ll break your car. Best revenge lyric “Even though what you did to me was much worse/ I had to do something to make you hurt.” Listen above. CeeLo Green, "Forget You" Getting revenge can be as simple as two words. And, depending on how salty you are, CeeLo has two options “F–k You” and its clean version, “Forget You.” Best revenge lyric “And although there’s pain in my chest/ I still wish you the best with a F–k you.'” Listen here. Alanis Morissette, "You Oughta Know" Long rumored to be a savage takedown of her ex, actor Dave Coulier, Alanis Morissette seeks her vengeance by making certain her target can never, ever, ever forget how he betrayed her. And given that the song topped the Alternative Airplay chart and enjoys regular radio play to this day, he definitely never will. Best revenge lyric “Did you forget about me, Mr. Duplicity?/ I hate to bug you in the middle of dinner/ It was a slap in the face, how quickly I was replaced/ And are you thinking of me when you f–k her?” Listen here. Miranda Lambert, "Mama's Broken Heart" Are you willing to go as far as it takes to get revenge? Are you prepared to get messy? Are you willing to show people just how crazy you can be? If you’re a fan of this boot-stomping Lambert gem from 2013, your answers are probably yes, yes and hell yes. Best revenge lyric “Can’t get revenge and keep a spotless reputation/ Sometimes revenge is a choice you gotta make.” Listen here. SZA, "Kill Bill" Image Credit Courtesy Photo SZA brought murderous revenge fantasy songs back into vogue in the 2020s, all thanks to her stunning SOS single “Kill Bill,” the musician’s first Hot 100 No. 1, on which she dreams of killing an ex who moves on way too fast for her liking. Best revenge lyric “I just killed my ex/ I still love him, though/ Rather be in hell than alone.” Listen above. Carly Simon, "You're So Vain" Carly Simon’s Hot 100 topper is a total stroke of genius from a revenge point of view. Not only does she get to insult her ex from top to bottom in this song, but that ex can’t even call her out for it — because then, he’d just be proving her right. Best revenge lyric “I bet you think this song is about you/ Don’t you don’t you don’t you?” Listen here. Carrie Underwood, "Before He Cheats" Image Credit Courtesy Photo “Before He Cheats” is a cathartic listening experience that validates everyone who’s ever been told, “Don’t worry babe, we’re just friends.” Thank you, Carrie Underwood car-owning cheaters will forever fear Louisville Sluggers because of you. Best revenge lyric “I might have saved a little trouble for the next girl/ Cause the next time that he cheats/ Oh, you know it won’t be on me.” Listen above.

It is considered Williams' signature song and was released as the third single from her second studio album The Comfort Zone. The song is a ballad about a young female admirer of a single man who stands by and watches as the object of her desires goes through years of dating, before he finally unexpectedly decides to initiate a relationship with the singer. The lyrics' redemptive themes resonated with Williams' story, as she had put together a successful music career following her earlier Miss America resignation scandal. The song was a commercial and critical success. It topped the Billboard Hot 100 chart for five weeks, and was ranked fourth on Billboard's Top 100 hits of 1992 list, becoming the biggest success of Williams' music career.
