It Should've Been You - Juliana Hatfield

Turn it off

I don’t want to dance

It sounds just like you

And he’s got your hands

You’re big in small circles

Maybe big in France

But my country just never game a damn

It should’ve been you

But a singer without a song

Who never realized the night is long

When you’re sober and out of luck

They’ll steal your best lines and your haircut

It should’ve been you

Lying here with my younger man

He’s good-looking but he doesn’t understand

That who I am is not my clothes or my car

He’s got no soul

But he’s a rock star

It should’ve been you

And I know I’m a fair-weather fuck

I only want you when you’re on top

I’m afraid when I feel your love

I turned away

But I’m not better off

It should’ve been you
