(Jan. 9) - A nugget of Kelly Clarkson's upcoming single 'My Life Would Suck Without You' has found its way to the Intertubes, and judging by its sheer catchiness, fans should be pleased the former 'Idol' re-teamed with the songwriting machine behind her biggest hit, 'Since U Been Gone.'

Where 'Gone' was a "good riddance to bad rubbish" anthem, 'Suck' plays out like a "okay you're back, you're sorry, now don't leave again" narrative. Both songs were written by hitmakers Max Martin and Dr. Luke. The album, due on March 17, will be her first release since 2007's 'My December.' Sample of 'Suck':

Check out the lyrics:

'My Life Would Suck Without You'

Guess this means you're sorry
You're standing at my door
Guess this means you take back
What you said before
Like how much you wanted
Anyone but me
Said you'd never come back
But here you are again

Cuz we belong together now
Forever united here somehow
You got a piece of me
And honestly
My life would suck without you
