Lyrics Used To Love Her

I Used to Love Her was written as satire, in response to accusations that Guns N Roses songs contained misogynistic lyrics. The song plays with the extreme theme of getting rid of an annoying girlfriend but was actually inspired by one of the band members dog. 

 I used to love her but I had to kill her
 I used to love her, Mm, yeah, but I had to kill her
 I had to put her six feet under
 And I can still hear her complain

 I used to love her oo, yeah, but I had to kill her
 I used to love her oo, yeah, but I had to kill her
 I knew I'd miss her, so I had to keep her
 She's buried right in my backyard!!!

Oh yeah, oo yeah, whoa, oh yeah

 I used to love her but I had to kill her
 I used to love her, ohh, yeah, but I had to kill her
 She bitched so much, she drove me nuts
 And now I'm happier this way!!! yeah

 Whoa, oh yeah!

 I used to love her but I had to kill her
 I used to love her, Mm, yeah, but I had to kill her
 I had to put her, oooh, six feet under
 And I can still hear her complain
