She was fifteen going to twenty nine 
 Daddy throw her out 
 Caught her doing a line 
 She still dancing to the same old song 
    Preacher's son, class president 
 Say i throw it all away 
 The night we met for a thrill 
 But you were wrong   
 We was just a learnin' 
 No flags were burning 
 Two kids just coming of age 
 And don't try to teach us 
 You're never gonna reach us 
 You and i, we ain't the same   
 I wouldn't want to be you 
 Left stranded 
 The last one standing 
 When it all comes crashing down 
 I wouldn't want to be you 
 Left hiding 
 With your world colliding 
 And your walls come a tumbling down 
 So put yourself in your shoes man 
 Would you want to be you?   
 I think it's funny how you spend your time 
 Tried to look good in other peoples eyes 
 Ah hell, if they only knew 
 You said three words, only one is true 
 The other two words they words, they all about you 
 I see right through and,   
 I wouldn't want to be you 
 Left stranded 
 The last one standing 
 When it all comes crashing down 
 I wouldn't want to be you 
 Left hiding 
 With your world colliding 
 And your walls come a tumbling down 
 So put yourself in your shoes man 
 Would you want to be you?   
 We was just a learnin' 
 No flags were burning 
 Two kids just coming of age 
 And don't try to teach us 
 You're never gonna reach us 
 You and i, we ain't the same   
 I wouldn't want to be you 
 Left stranded 
 The last one standing 
 When it all comes crashing down 
 I wouldn't want to be you 
 Left hiding 
 With your world colliding 
 And your walls come a tumbling down   
 I wouldn't want to be you 
 Left stranded 
 The last one standing 
 When it all comes crashing down 
 I wouldn't want to be you 
 Left hiding 
 With your world colliding 
 And your walls come a tumbling down 
 Oh, put yourself in your shoes man 
 You wouldn't want to be you 
 Oo, i wouldn't you want to be you
