“How Would You Like It?”, the fourth track on British singer-songwriter Lauren Aquilina’s 2016 debut album, Isn’t It Strange?, is a melancholy piano ballad about an unfaithful lover. The sound is reminiscent of many of her earlier works,...
[Verse 1]
Who said that you could make a fool of me?
And treat me as if I’m not even here
Who said that you decide how I feel?
Who?
Have you got blood running through your veins?
Do you feel love and can you feel pain?
Who said it’s fine for you to shift the blame?
Who?
[Pre-Chorus]
While you were letting somebody in
Did you ever stop and think
[Chorus]
How would you like it
If I tore you up into pieces
Tell me how would you like it
If I left you while you were sleeping
Now he’s got my dress on the floor
I breathe the name that isn’t yours
And let you go a little more
So how would you like it?
[Verse 2]
Who said that you could just mess with me?
Talk about her in the place we sleep
Who said I didn’t have the strength to leave?
Who?
Did you really think that it would be ok?
Come home expecting nothing to change
Who said that I would look the other way?
Who?
[Pre-Chorus]
While you were underneath her skin
Did you ever stop and think
[Chorus]
How would you like it
If I tore you up into pieces
Tell me how would you like it
If I left you while you were sleeping
Now he’s got my dress on the floor
I breathe the name that isn’t yours
And let you go a little more
So how would you like it?
[Bridge]
Well I’m saying I will be the one to choose
I’m saying I won’t be the one who’s used
Hope you remember everything you loose
Who?
[Chorus]
How would you like it
If I tore you up into pieces
Tell me how would you like it
If I left you while you were sleeping
Now he’s got my dress on the floor
I breathe the name that isn’t yours
And let you go a little more
So how would you like it?
Whoaaa how would you like it?
Ooooh
Tell me how would you like it?
How would you like it?
[Outro]
Now he’s got my dress on the floor
I breathe the name that isn’t yours
Oh would you die a little more
So how would you like it?

“#IsntItStrange track 4 – how would you like it? i wrote this song a few days after i wrote kicks, and i don’t think it’s a coincidence that two of my favourite songs on the album arrived within a week of eachother. my songwriting is so dependent on what’s happening in my own life. i wish i was one...
