If I Were You (I'd Be Through With Me)
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 for make me bloom
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
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 for make me bloom
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
