lyrics

You should have told me 'bout those road works
I could have been earlier at yours
You should have told me 'bout those road works
I could have been earlier at yours
But I arrived too late and saw another man at your door

Well, the fastest way is Highway 51
But there are stupid road works going on
You should have told me 'bout those road works
I could have been earlier at yours
But I arrived too late and saw another man at your door

Wanted to take the fast train, but the train just didn't come
Couldn't control my tears, my heart was beating like a drum
You should have told me 'bout those road works
I could have been earlier at yours
But I arrived too late and saw another man at your door

So, I ran to the bus stop – almost out of breath
Just to realize the bus already left
You should have told me 'bout those road works
I could have been earlier at yours
But I arrived too late and saw another man at your door

Well, I called for a taxi, but no taxi could be found
Felt like chains that bound me to the ground
You should have told me 'bout those road works
I could have been earlier at yours
But I arrived too late and saw another man at your door

You should have told me 'bout those road works
You should have told me 'bout those road works
You should have told me 'bout those road works
You should have told me 'bout those road works
You should have told me 'bout those road works
Could have been earlier at yours
