Lyrics
If I Were You
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
It's comin' soon, I'd pull it together
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
If I were you
Oh, tell me how it feels, conspiracy cadet
Wound up like a cassette, the tape about to shed
If chaos is a ladder, hell is heaven sent
Keep pullin' at the thread while cashin' in the cheque
No tellin' what I'd do
With my hands stuck on you
No tellin' what I'd do
With my hands
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
It's comin' soon, I'd pull it together
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
You'll get what's due, I'd square the vendetta
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
Think you're pretty wiley blowin' up the Sun?
Confuse a loaded question with a smokin' gun
You move like Dunning-Kruger, truth is overdone
A father like his son, look after number one, yeah
No tellin' what I'd do
With my hands stuck on you
No tellin' what I'd do
With my hands
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
It's comin' soon, I'd pull it together
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
You'll get what's due, I'd square the vendetta
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
Some don't care about the ones they hurt
Some just wanna see the planet burn
They'll come for you
They'll come for you, they'll come for you, they'll come for you
If I were you
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
You'll get what's due, I'd square the vendetta
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
