I should've stayed at home
|
Propped up in an armchair
|
With my favourite magazine
|
Should've held my tongue
|
Should've woken you up
|
Bad news when you least expect it
|
I shouldn't drive the car
|
And though it tears you up
|
Things are kept
|
Just the way you left them
|
And i lost my tongue
|
Go get an early start
|
Leave some room
|
For subtle accusations
|
There's still a long way down
|
Told you you’d be there for me
|
Told you that you'd follow me down
|
I told you to beware of me
|
Told you that you'd follow me down
|
I should've stayed at home
|
Fed you sour oranges
|
And sweet tea when it rains
|
When the roof fell down
|
Should’ve woken you up
|
Rise up from the mattress
|
To the best news
|
That we least expected
|
There's still a long way down.
