Lyrics

Thanks

Expressing gratitude

Thanks a lot

Expressing gratitude intensely

I got a broken heart

Acknowledging a broken heart

It's all I got

Emphasizing that a broken heart is the only possession

You made me cry

Stating that the other person caused tears

Yeah I cried a lot

Highlighting the extent of crying

I lost your love

Indicating the loss of love

Honey thanks a lot

Expressing ironic gratitude for the mentioned outcomes


You told our friends

Informing others about the heartbreak

As I was passing by

Describing overhearing a conversation

That you're not sorry

Reporting the denial of remorse

That you made me cry

Affirming tears were intentionally caused

You said I deserve

Claiming deserving the consequences

Just what I got

Accepting the situation

Well if that's how you feel babe

Responding with resignation to the partner's feelings

Honey thanks a lot

Expressing ironic thanks for the accepted fate


Thanks

Repetition of gratitude for emphasis

Thanks a lot

Intensifying the expression of thanks

I got a broken heart

Reiteration of a broken heart as the only possession

It's all I got

Emphasizing the impact of the broken heart

You made me cry

Repeating that tears were caused

Yeah I cried a lot

Emphasizing the extensive crying

I lost your love

Restating the loss of love

Honey thanks a lot

Expressing ironic gratitude for the reiterated outcomes


Well you wanted a fool

Acknowledging the partner's desire for a foolish person

And I played the part

Confirming the portrayal of a fool

Now all I got

Highlighting the result of playing the fool

Is a broken heart

Expressing the current possession of a broken heart

We loved a little

Recalling the joyful moments in the relationship

Yeah we laughed a lot

Emphasizing both love and laughter

Then you were gone

Noting the sudden departure of the partner

Honey thanks a lot

Expressing ironic gratitude for the experienced joy and subsequent loss


Thanks

Repetition of thanks with intensified emotion

Thanks a lot

Re-emphasizing the broken heart as the sole possession

I got a broken heart

Reiterating the impact of the broken heart

It's all I got

Repeating the statement that tears were caused

You made me cry

Re-emphasizing the extent of crying

Yeah I cried a lot

Restating the loss of love

I lost your love

Expressing ironic gratitude for the repeated outcomes

Honey thanks a lot

Final thanks with irony for the overall experience
