"Told Ya So" lyrics

He was a no getter
Holes in his sweater
Drinking every weekend
Thinking he could do better 'cause he
Hated his life
9 to 5
He was bendin' over backwards
Just to barely get by
And he knows it ain't gonna be easy
But his hopes and his dreams never leave him
And it sucks 'cause he justifies a reason
That his dreams are too big to believe in

But if he knew
What I knew
It would change everything
All of his dreams
They come true
He can do anything

Just screw your head on straight kid
You don't know what you're wasting
You're more than good enough
Give it all instead of giving up
Someday just wait kid
You're gonna fuckin' make it
Never try, you never know
One day I'll say I told you so

Don't you worry 'bout quittin' your job
'Cause it don't matter
All the cheques that you get from your songs
Are much fatter
And the crowds will be singin' along to that kid
From the council house in Newbridge

Oh if he knew
What I knew
It would change everything
All of his dreams
They come true
He can do anything

Just screw your head on straight kid
You don't know what you're wasting
You're more than good enough
Give it all instead of giving up
Someday just wait kid
You're gonna fuckin' make it
Never try, you never know
One day I'll say I told you so

One day I'll say I told you sooooooo
One day I'll say I, I

Just screw your head on straight kid
You don't know what you're wasting
You're more than good enough
Give it all instead of giving up
Someday just wait kid
You're gonna fuckin' make it
Never try, you never know
One day I'll say I told you so

2, 3, 4

Someday just wait kid
You're gonna fuckin' make it
Never try, you never know
One day I'll say I
