In “Shouldn’t Couldn’t Wouldn’t,” Rich Brian and NIKI play significant others in a loveless, empty relationship.
Through the lyrics we can see that both are starting to give up, and the song depicts both of their realizations that the relationship is coming to an end.
The song features poppy and s...
[Intro: NIKI]
Mm, mm, yeah
Mm
[Verse 1: NIKI]
By now I got your bad habits all memorized
Like, when I know you need me most
You go and shut me out, figures, you Gemini
And I'm not sayin' that I've got
[Pre-Chorus 1: NIKI]
All of the answers, but
Boy, I've been in love before
It's not always peachy, look, life ain't that easy
But one thing I know for sure is it
[Chorus: NIKI]
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
[Verse 2: NIKI]
You wonder why suddenly I'm comin' off indifferent
What you don't seem to understand is
It's not anything you said, it's everything you didn't, oh
[Pre-Chorus 2: NIKI]
Yeah, you, you always answer with
More questions to questions that scare you
We're not always peachy, look, love ain't that easy
But one thing I know, I know it for sure, that it
[Chorus: NIKI]
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
[Verse 3: Rich Brian]
I drank too much tonight to not try to call you up
I mean that's what our phones are for
I'm not one for titles, girl, in other words, terrified
That pussy kicked my rules out the door
[Pre-Chorus 3: Rich Brian]
I could take more shots or I could take you off your blouse
My favorite parts of fuckin' is either when I'm done or when you're walkin' out my house
And you don't pick up when I call unless I call you mine
But one thing I know is it
[Chorus: NIKI]
Shouldn't be this hard
You couldn't DTR
Oh, wouldn't it be nice if we could stay friends? But we
Shouldn't, you know what I
Couldn't, 'nough's enough
If I had your heart, it wouldn't be this hard
[Outro: NIKI]
Hard, mm
It's not always peachy, look, love ain't that easy
But one thing I know for sure is we shouldn't

“That was something we all related to and thus probably everybody out there in the world who’s fallen in love would relate to as well. It’s a play on should of, could of, would of, but this is like should not, could not and would not.”
“That was definitely one of my favourite songs that I’d written...
