I Should Have Known Better Songtext / Lyric

i got in a tussle

with a stranger on the train

his face was familiar

but i couldn't place the name

it got to be ugly

?

i hope that no-one who could see

would be someone who'd know you



i had a small run-in

with a driver and his wife

you might call it road rage

?

considered nothing

i held my ground

and now that it's over

i've said that there must be

a better way






i keep it in mind

eight times out of nine

i'm wrong or i'm right

it's not worth a fight

but what's hard to define

makes it tough to decide

you don't realize

until after it has begun

whether this is the one

i probably knew better

i probably knew better



consider nothing

i held my ground

and now that it's over

i'll say that there must be

a better way



i keep it in mind

eight times out of nine

i'm wrong or i'm right

it's not worth a fight

but what's hard to abide

it's tough to decide

we don't realize

until after it has begun

whether this was the one

i probably knew better

i probably knew better

i probably knew better

i probably knew better
