Coulda Woulda Shoulda
[Chorus: Sam Sparro]
Now that I'm on my way
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around
I bet you never thought you'd ever see the day
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around
I told you so, I told you so
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around
Oh well, it's cool, we all make mistakes
But don't call me when you're down
[Verse 1: Lyrics Born]
This gift that I've been blessed with, baby, I ain't get without a few consequences
And there's a few names that I will not mention
Let's just say they ain't had my best interests at heart
From the start it was not what I want
Then she caught me off guard with [?], it was on
Oh God, Lyrics Born, you in trouble now
Whoever thought I'da got hustled (Ow!)
I take some blame, no I can't take all of it
'Cause what man ain’t thought a smile's a compliment
Just tell me, please tell me, please help me, I'm just LB
Isn't my phone a little less bones
'Cause I only chose to see the best in folk
It's a shame nowadays I got to question folks
Once bitten, twice shy, as the expression goes
[Chorus: Sam Sparro]
Now that I'm on my way
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around
I bet you never thought you'd ever see the day
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around
I told you so, I told you so
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around
Oh well, it's cool (it’s cool), we all make mistakes
But don't call me when you're down
[Post-Chorus: Sam Sparro]
Don't you call me when you're down
Don't you call me when you're down
Don't you call me when you're down
Call me when you down
[Verse 2: Lyrics Born]
Whatever happened to the old adage you should give a man latitude so he can 'chieve his aptitude
Create his own avenue and reach a high altitude
No matter who he is, he got his own attributes
Baby baby, it's just a part of life
Some people stick around while others bounce
And that's the way it is, what's up for the counts
Baby, baby
She ain't see me as a proper human being
She see me as as an opportunity
A piece of property, a hot commodity
And when the economy went south, she bounced with somebody else
And now I even heard she's even with somebody else
Baby, is that what it's all about?
She ain't even leave when it got really bad
She bounce with a guy, any minimum
Leaping from lily pad to lily pad
But look at me now baby, really, how can I even be just a little bit mad?
Baby, baby
[Chorus: Sam Sparro]
Now that I'm on my way (On my way)
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around (You shoulda stuck around)
I bet you never thought you'd ever see the day (Look at me now)
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around (Ooh)
I told you so, I told you so (But you didn't believe me)
You coulda woulda shoulda stuck around (Oh yeah, yeah)
Oh well, it's cool (It's cool), we all make mistakes (Oh yes we do)
But don't call me when you're down (Don't call me when you're down)
[Bridge: Sam Sparro]
You were a typical opportunist and now I'm onto you
And just know that you blew it
It's time to move on and on
You're gone, you're gone
Don't let it hit you on the way out the door
