[Chorus]
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
It's comin' soon, I'd pull it together
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
If I were you
[Verse 1]
Oh, tell me how it feels, conspiracy cadet
Wound up like a cassette, the tape about to shed
If chaos is a ladder, hell is heaven sent
Keep pullin' at the thread while cashin' in the cheque
[Pre-Chorus]
No tellin' what I'd do
With my hands stuck on you
No tellin' what I'd do
With my hands
[Chorus]
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
It's comin' soon, I'd pull it together
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
You'll get what's due, I'd square the vendetta
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
[Verse 2]
Think you're pretty wily, blowin' up the sun?
Confuse a loaded question with a smokin' gun
You move like Dunning-Kruger, truth is overdone
A father like his son, look after number one, yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
No tellin' what I'd do
With my hands stuck on you
No tellin' what I'd do
With my hands
[Chorus]
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
It's comin' soon, I'd pull it together
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
You'll get what's due, I'd square the vendetta
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time
[Bridge]
Some don't care about the ones they hurt
Some just wanna see the planet burn
They'll come for you
They'll come for you, they'll come for you, they'll come for you
If I were you
[Chorus]
If I were you, I'd treat them better
If I were you, I'd settle the weather
You'll get what's due, I'd square the vendetta
Yeah, get it together, it's a matter of time

Dominic Craik:
Nine Inch Nails were definitely a reference for the drum sound and the wonky acoustic in the middle 8!
