I Should Know
Remorseful Reflections: Jake Etheridge's 'I Should Know' Meaning Unveiled
Lyrics
you showed up after the mess was already made
You arrived after the situation had already become chaotic.
two seconds late, like the next car in the Kennedy motorcade i fucked up, i don't know what else to say
You were slightly delayed, like the next car in the Kennedy motorcade. I messed up, and I'm at a loss for words.
except honestly your friends already hated me anyway
Honestly, your friends had a negative opinion of me even before this incident.
i hate parties i hate laughing at bad jokes you know that
I dislike social gatherings and find it hard to laugh at unfunny jokes, and you are aware of that.
cause i told you
Because I informed you about my dislikes.
but you've forgotten i suppose
However, it seems you have forgotten.
you do that
It's a recurring behavior of yours.
yea you do that
Yes, you consistently do that.
then act like I should know I should know
Then, you act as if I should have known better.
I shoulda called
I should have made a call.
I shoulda kept this apartment clean yea it's all my fault
I should have maintained cleanliness in this apartment. It's entirely my fault.
yea it is and it was and it always will be
It was my fault, and it will always be my fault.
but i hate parties i hate laughing at bad jokes you know that
Similar repetition of disliking parties and not finding bad jokes amusing.
cause i told you
Despite informing you, you seem to have forgotten.
but you've forgotten i suppose
It's a recurring behavior of forgetting on your part.
you do that
Again, you do that.
and i hate this feeling that there's something i should know that I don't know
I dislike the feeling that there's something important I should know but don't.
i hate parties i smoking in the cold you knew that
I dislike parties and smoking in the cold, and you were aware of that.
cause i told you
As I previously told you.
but you've forgotten i suppose you do that
Once again, you seem to have forgotten.
and i hate this feeling that there's something i should know that I don't know
I dislike the feeling of not knowing something important.
I don't know
I genuinely don't know.
