Never been a perfect picture
Never been one to take to mom
Been like spending time
With an enemy of mine
I don't know why I kept hanging on
[C]But it's easier to stay
Than make her go away
I'd never had a lack of lazy l[G]ust until today
Wicked w[D]itch of the w[C]est
Walked out on [G]me
I didn't love her when she left me
I didn't want her when she walked out
Beat my dreams into a nightmare it seems
I still kept her around
It ain't easy to love someone you can't stand
To be around anyway, oh thank God
Wicked witch of the west
Walked out on me
I used to wish she'd hop on her broom
And fly right out of my life
Grab up all of her monkey men
And not even say good bye
But as far as I can tell
She's gone back to hell
And that's where she oughtta stay
Wicked witch of the west
Walked out on me
Wicked witch of the west
Walked out on me
Never been one to take to mom
Been like spending time
With an enemy of mine
I don't know why I kept hanging on
[C]But it's easier to stay
Than make her go away
I'd never had a lack of lazy l[G]ust until today
Wicked w[D]itch of the w[C]est

I didn't love her when she left me
I didn't want her when she walked out
Beat my dreams into a nightmare it seems
I still kept her around
It ain't easy to love someone you can't stand
To be around anyway, oh thank God
Wicked witch of the west

And fly right out of my life

And that's where she oughtta stay
Wicked witch of the west
Walked out on me
Wicked witch of the west
Walked out on me
