Wouldn't Want to Be You - American Bang

Well, she was fifteen going to twenty nine

Daddy threw her out

Caught her doing a line

She still dances to the same old song

Preacher’s son, class president

Say I threw it all away

The night we met for a thrill

But, you were wrong

We were just a-learning

No flags were burning

Two kids just coming of age

And don’t try to teach us You’re never gonna reach us You and I, we ain’t the same

I wouldn’t want to be you

Left stranded

The last one standing

When it all comes crashing down

I wouldn’t want to be you

Left hiding

With your World colliding

And walls come a tumbling down

Put yourself in your shoes man

Would you want to be you?

I think it’s funny how you spring your tongue

Try to look good in other peoples eyes

Ah, hell if they only knew

You said three words, only one is true

The other two words they all about you

I see right through

I wouldn’t want to be you

Left stranded

The last one standing

When it all comes crashing down

I wouldn’t want to be you

Left hiding

With your World colliding

And walls come a tumbling down

Put yourself in your shoes man

Would you want to be you?

Take it bro…

We were just a-learning

No flags were burning

Two kids just coming of age

And don’t try to teach us You’re never gonna reach us You and I, we ain’t the same

I wouldn’t want to be you

Left stranded

The last one standing

When it all comes crashing down

I wouldn’t want to be you

Left hiding

With your World colliding

And walls come a tumbling down

Put yourself in your shoes man

Would you want to be you?
