Glad to Know You Lyrics

Cover art for Glad to Know You lyrics by Chaz Jankel

This is a pretty clever little song. It's actually about betrayal, and discovering who a person really is. "I thought you were my friend", "There must be other ways" and "I wish that I'd been told" all are what would be frustrated statements under normal circumstances, but by adding "glad to know you" and "pleased to meet you", there's a kind of cynical humor there. It's like, "yep, you screwed me over, in ways I never imagined, in fact, I'm only now seeing who you really are. Pleased to meet you!"
