The Divine Comedy - If I Were You (I’d Be Through with Me) lyrics

If I were you i'd look at me
And fail to see the things i see in you
If I were you and if I were you
I wouldn't let the shit you get from me
Get the better of you if I were you

Don't you ever wonder why
I could never make you cry?

Well if I were you I'd ride away
To a pasture new where I could graze on
The grass, so succulent and sweet
If I were you i'd be through with me

If I were you i wouldn't need
To always read the magazines that I do
That make me blue so if I were you
I'd make the break
Before I take my frustrations out on you
Just break on through

Don't you ever in your dreams
Take a lover and make her scream?

Well if I were you I'd ride away
To a pasture new where I could graze on
The grass, so succulent and sweet
If I were you i'd be through with me

Well if I were you I'd ride away
To a pasture new where I could graze on
The green, green grass of virgin country
I'd live real fast and die real young
You see if I were you I'd end my days
In a field of stupid sheep just grazing
The grass, so succulent and sweet
If I were you i'd be through with me
