I Wish Somebody Would'Ve Told Me

I wish somebody would’ve told me
Since reincarnating as a camel
It is not all it’s cracked up to be
Thought it would be fun to be this mammal

Since reincarnating as a camel
I’ve taken my fair share of lumps
Thought it would be fun to be this mammal
I spit too much and have these awkward humps

I’ve taken my fair share of lumps
It is not all it’s cracked up to be
I spit too much and have these awkward humps
I wish somebody would’ve told me
