Lyrics Mr. Should - Cotton Mather

Mr. Should

You’d think
That everything would fall apart
If you only listened to your heart
I beg, take a chance
It’s a pain
Explaining everything to you
In the hopes that we can make it through
The filter of your experience
And are you proud of that invention?
Are you running from the good life, Mr. Should?
Are you struggling just to get, by Mr. Should?
And if you’d rather only survive, Mr. Should
Better luck next life, Mr. Should
You could make
A beautiful thing be true
If you let her get close to you
Be once the boy and twice the man
How could you
Think she wasn’t quite what you deserved?
It’s like your sentenced and determined to serve
But that girl could be your escape plan
And do you love incarceration?
Are you running from the good life, Mr. Should?
Are you struggling just to get, by Mr. Should?
And if you’d rather only survive, Mr. Should
Better luck next life, Mr. Should
And everybody has the right to decide
How to make a miserable affair of their lives
As if waking up wasn’t enough of a fight
You had to go and choose the wrong girl
But pretty soon you started letting us down
By overlooking all the love you’d found
I don’t think I’ll be sticking around
This is not an infinite world
Mr. Should
It’d be nice to see you when you have time
But don’t hold your breath, I’m not holding mine
Maybe you’ll get lucky and I’ll blow you a kiss
You should think
A little bit about how things exist
I think there’s something you must have missed
It’s nothing that you’re gonna find on one of your lists
Oh
Are you running from the good life, Mr. Should?
Are you struggling just to get, by Mr. Should?
And if you’d rather only survive, Mr. Should
Better luck next life, Mr. Should
Mr. Should
Mr. Should
