The music video was directed by Nick Egan and features a dimly-lit Morissette hitch-hiking across a desert.I want you to know that I'm happy for youI wish nothing but the best for you bothAn older version of me, is she perverted like me?Would she go down on you in a theatre?Does she speak eloquently?And would she have your baby?I'm sure she'd make a really excellent mother[Bridge]'Cos the love that you gave that we madeWasn't able to make it enough for you to be open wide, NoAnd every time you speak her name,Does she know how you told me you'd hold meUntil you died, 'till you diedBut you're still alive[Chorus]And I'm here to remind youOf the mess you left when you went awayIt's not fair to deny meOf the cross I bear that you gave to meYou, you, you oughta knowYou seem very well, things look peacefulI'm not quite as wellI thought you should knowDid you forget about me, Mr. Duplicity?I hate to bug you in the middle of dinnerIt was a slap in the face how quickly I was replacedAnd are you thinking of me when you fuck her?(Bridge & Chorus)Cause the joke that you laid on the bed that was meAnd I'm not gonna fade as soon as you close your eyesAnd you know itAnd every time I scratch my nails down someone else's backI hope you feel itWell can you feel it?[Chorus]
