you should’ve come

i jumped out of an aeroplane
i made love to an angel on the way
i got caught in a wire

i fell into the ocean last night
a great white with a smile in the moonlight
said he’s gonna take me into the afterlife

oh you should’ve come yesterday
you should’ve come yesterday
‘cos it didn’t have to be this way
it didn’t have to be this way
oh you should’ve come

i surfed home on a tidal wave last night
i talked shit with an elvis look-alike
he said he’s made a good living

i flew into the sun today
i saw god on a bike going the other way
he said “take it easy, thank you for coming”

oh you should’ve come yesterday
you should’ve come yesterday
‘cos it didn’t have to be this way
it didn’t have to be this way
it didn’t have to be this way

what would you do if the world opened up and swallowed you
how many things do you wish you’d done yesterday
oh you should’ve come
you should’ve come
you should’ve come
you should’ve come

‘cos it didn’t have to be this way
it didn’t have to be this way
it didn’t have to be this way
oh you should’ve come
you should’ve come
you should’ve come
you should’ve come
