Should've Been Could've Been

[Verse 1] Some of you will already know (How we love to disguise) There's no place to go This is the modern man As good as I am Here in the heart of the sun My memory melts Swellegant, elephant pain He never forgets [Chorus] Should've been (How we love to disguise) A beautiful thing Could've been A beautiful thing [Verse 2] Pull over to the side of the road Let the bold be bold Luxury at a low introductory price Now wouldn't that be nice? A happy little family puts you in a trance (How we love to disguise) Meanwhile back at the ranch Insatiable hand-held flexible friend Why not give him a chance? [Chorus] Could've been A beautiful thing Should've been, could've been A beautiful thing [Verse 3] Promises of pleasure mesmerised (How we love to disguise) But how far can we get? At least here in the eye of the storm I won't get my hairdo wet Some of you have already foreseen Yourself undone Some of you seem to believe You've only just begun Try a little perjury (How we love to disguise) Get rich quick My eyes are bigger than my belly is And it makes me sick Attitude, so much to prove Should've been a beautiful thing Some of you will already know And I'm still wondering [Chorus] Should've been (How we love to disguise) A beautiful thing Could've been A beautiful thing I could've been Should've been Could've been A beautiful thing Could've been A beautiful thing Should've been, could've been A beautiful thing (How we love to disguise)
