If You Were Me Lyrics

Hey, hey

If you were me, if you were me

You wouldn't talk so casually

If you were me, if you were me

You'd make believe you understand, and that you see

If you were me, if you were me

You see me one place

And you think you know me, baby

No need to read the story, 'cause you've

seen the cover

Always say "if I were you"

And proceed to tell me just what you would do

How to get rich quick, and how to find the chicks

Thinking you're so clever

Hey, hey

If you were me, if you were me

You wouldn't talk so casually

If you were me, if you were me

You'd make believe you understand, and that you see

If you were me, if you were me

You do things one time and you

Think you know it all down to an art

You find me so naive

That you constantly patronize (patronize!)

Always say "if I were you"

How 'bout ya piss off? That's what I think you should do

Never asked for advice, not when yours is so trite,

Do it yourself then, if you know better

Hey, hey

If you were me, if you were me

You wouldn't talk so casually

If you were me, if you were me

You'd make believe you understand and that you see

If you were me, if you were me

Not cuttin' my hair, don't tell me what to wear, no

Think I ain't got the skills, but I'm still paying my bills, oh

Keep the free advice, you can go take a hike, oh

Aw… yeah

Hit 'em with the key change, uh

Hey, hey

If you were me, if you were me

You wouldn't talk so casually

If you were me, if you were me

You'd make believe you understand and that you see

If you were me, if you were me

You see me one place

And you think you know me, baby

No need to read the story, 'cause you've

seen the cover

Stop saying "if I were you"

You're not. You can take a seat, too

It's great that you got a plan; no I don't give a damn

'cause you ain't me! Nah, you ain't me

Hey, hey

If you were me, if you were me

You wouldn't talk so casually

If you were me, if you were me

You'd make believe you understand and that you see

If you were me, if you were me
