The show ponies - Shoulda Showed Him lyrics

[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 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 [Verse 2] [?] and watched his prey Took no time at all to set a mark on me Thought I would like his plans, made the demands He thought he could force upon a woman Instead of looking down, looking down And taking on a 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
