No matter what generation, songs have always been a great platform to get a great dig in to a former lover. Here are a few right off the top of my head.

Anyone have some more?



Grenade: (Bruno Mars)

Tell the devil I said 'hey" when you get back to where you're from


Jar of Hearts: (Christina Perri)

You're going to catch a cold from the ice inside your soul


Positively 4th Street: (Dylan)

Yes, I wish for just one time
You could stand inside mt shoes
You'd know what a drag it is
To see you

Bitter (Nine Days)

I don't ask for your forgiveness
I don't care for your actress
That's just you though, shallow and selfish
So I go now, oh my hollow one, today
If I could change anything, I would change everything
These bitter days shall remain

The Wallflowers (I wish I felt Nothing);

but I hear voices...and I see colors...
but I wish I felt nothing...
then it might be easy for me...
like it is for you...

Won't Be Home - Old 97s

You're a rattle trap tonight,
My ears are gettin' tired,
So listen for a while,
Before this thing expires.

Oh, it was bound to fail,
All 'cause of where I'm from.
Now the moons at four o'clock,
And it's high time kingdom come.

So please get out of my car...

The White Stripes -- "There's No Home For You Here" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lbA2jLI0_p0)

There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here

I'd like to think that all of this constant interaction
Is just the kind to make you drive yourself away
Each simple gesture done by me is counteracted
And leaves me standing here with nothing else to say

Completely baffled by a backward indication
That an inspired word will come across your tongue
Hands moving not but to propel the situation
Have simply halted
And now the conversation's done

There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here

I'm only waiting for the proper time to tell you
That it's impossible to get along with you
It's hard to look you in the face when we are talking
So it helps to have a mirror in the room

I've not been really looking forward to the performance
But there's my cue and there's a question on your face
Fortunately I have come across an answer
Which is go away
And do not leave a trace

There's no home for you here girl, go away
There's no home for you here

========================

Fiona Apple -- "Sleep to Dream" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L9Wnh0V4HMM)

I have never been so insulted in all my life
I could swallow the seas to wash down all this pride
First you run like a fool just to be at my side
And now you run like a fool
But you just run to hide, and I can't abide

========================

Fiona Apple -- "Parting Gift" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NP869swP2po)

I opened my eyes
While you were kissing me once more than once
And you looked as sincere as a dog
Just as sincere as a dog does,
When it's the food on your lips with which it's in love

"Idiot wind, blowing like a circle around my skull,
From the Grand Coulee Dam to the Capitol.
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth,
You're an idiot, babe.
It's a wonder that you still know how to breathe."

Idiot wind, blowing through the flowers on your tomb
Blowing through the curtains in your room
Idiot wind, blowing every time you move your teeth
You’re an idiot, babe
It’s a wonder that you still know how to breathe

Even creepier when you consider the only reason it's not in my post is that I thought for sure it had to have been posted already.

Taxi by Harry Chapin;

Maybe not an insult as much as a sad realization of what they both became...or did not become-depending how you look at it...

and she walked away in silence...
it's strange, how you never know...
but we'd both gotten what we'd asked for...
such a long,long time ago...

you see, she was gonna be an actress...
and I was gonna learn to fly...
she took off to find the footlights...
I took off for the sky...
....and here, she's acting happy-inside her handsome home...
...and me-I'm flying in my Taxi...taking tips...and getting stoned...

I go flying so high....when I'm stoned.

Guns & Roses-I used to love her - but I had to kill her;

I used to love her-but I had to kill her...
I used to love her-but I had to kill her...
I knew I'd miss her-so I had to keep her...
She's buried right in my back yard.

That song "beautiful" by Ten Years is not quite insulting. Instead, the things they say are more hurtful than insulting. Somehow I like that song.

I'd have to think really hard to come up with any, but just throwing it out there that Bruno Mars also wrote Fuck You! as well as his song Grenade. His album is pretty awesome.

One of my favorite bands, Five Finger Death Punch and their song Succubus:

Bruno just collaborated on song, he did not write it. But his CD is good.

Queens of the Stone Age -- "Broken Box" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KSlicQBP_UQ)

I've got wine and so do you
Mine came with a cork
I wish yours did too

Everyone just loves you so
Well hurray!
Now you know where to go

In my head you're all brand new
I guess you're really all the same
In my head you're all brand new
Tell your new boy where I came
In my head you're all brand new
I just didn't want what you gave
In my head you're all brand new
Go and find yourself another slave

There you are
Ooohh you're so in love, just like Juliette
Well guess what?
That's one thing that you can for-fucking-get

Tears from the sky
In pools of pain
Well baby tonight, I'm gonna go and dance in the rain

In my head you're all brand new
I guess you're really all the same
In my head you're all brand new
Tell your new boy where i came
In my head you're all brand new
Take that broken pussy elsewhere
In my head you're all brand new
Save it baby, I don't care

U2-You're so cruel;



We crossed the line
Who pushed who over?
It doesn't matter to you
It matters to me
We're cut adrift
We're still floating
I'm only hanging on
To watch you go down
My love

I disappeared in you
You disappeared from me
I gave you everything you ever wanted
It wasn't what you wanted

The men who love you, you hate the most
They pass RIGHT through you like a ghost
They look for you, but your spirit is in the air
Baby, you're nowhere

Oh...love...
You say in love there are no rules
Oh...love...
Sweetheart,
You're so cruel
