Well I Gknow it's been a little while
Since the Bminfirst time that I made you smile
And I Eminthought I'd take this opporDtuniCty

And Bmintry to find out what someone like Eminyou
is trying to hide Dfrom Cme
Well I Chope that you don't get Dangry girl
I Ghope you F#don't Fget Ehurt
DBy the Cthings I found while Dgoin' through your CpurseG  
Your Make-up, your compact, lipstick, and shit like that
And the keys that you keep on a chain
Your cigarettes and my lighter too
And a picture of your sister
God I think your one in the same
Then I cleverly put all these things back into place so you
Wouldn't think that I was a jerk
The things I found while goin' through your purse

And all the guys who date you
And your high school graduation ring
And a check stub from the place you work
Some poetry from some
Stupid jerk who's tryin' to
Steal your heart away from me
Well I hope that you don't get offended girl
Yeah and I hope you don't get hurt
By the things I found while going through
Yeah the things I found when I was goin' thru
The things I found while goin' thru your purse
