Shoulda Showed Him Lyrics by The Show Ponies

How It All Goes Down

2017

[Verse 1]
Every little lie that he told me
Planted in my brain and sprouted like a seed
What I lack in confidence and self-defence
He took advantage of my innocence
Instead of bottling down, bottling down all my feelings
And everything that was wrong
I should have turned around, turned around and defended
For when I'm weak I'm strong
[Chorus]
I shoulda showed him
I shoulda shut him up and showed him
I shoulda told him, I shoulda told him to run
I shoulda showed him
I shoulda shut him up and showed him
I shoulda told him
I shoulda told him to run
I shoulda told him to run
[Verse 2]
[?] and watched his prey
Took no time at all to set a mark on me
Thought I would like his plans, meet his demands
He thought he could force upon a woman
Instead of looking down, looking down
And taking on the necessary shame
I should have stood my ground, stood my ground
And refused to take on any of the blame
[Chorus]
I shoulda showed him
I shoulda shut him up and showed him
I shoulda told him, I should'a told him to run
I shoulda showed him
I shoulda shut him up and showed him
I shoulda told him
I shoulda told him to run
I shoulda told him to
Run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
I shoulda told him to
Run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
[Verse 3]
And the lies, they creep back in
Telling me it's not worth fighting
But what's worse is the truth
That a man like that thinks he can lay a hand on you
[Outro]
I shoulda told him to
Run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
I shoulda told him to
Run, run, run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
I shoulda told him to run
