Lyrics
Shoulda never told you when you ask am I fat
Shoulda never told you I hate your stupid cat
Shoulda never told you about the time
we used to head across state lines to pick up girls
Shoulda never told you anything
about the way a man thinks about the world
I?ll never hear the end of it now
shoulda shut my big fat mouth
Why can?t you get over this
cause I don?t wanna talk about it
cause I don?t wanna talk about it anymore
Shoulda never told you your sister flirts alot
Shoulda never told you I like to lie when I get caught
Shoulda never told you about the ex
because it makes you so upset you scream and shout
Shoulda never told you all of this
I try to stop it but sometimes it just comes out
Pre chorus then chorus
You always bring up the past to try to bring me down
like some kinda power play
But every stone that you cast is landing on the ground
as I step out of the way
