I should have known
Foo Fighters
A class by @TeacherBrunoGon
Warm-up:
If it was possible to time travel back would you like to change something? Would you try something harder? What and why? _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
1- Listen to the song and fill in the blanks.
I should have known
That it _________ end this way
I should have known
There was no other way
Didn´t hear your warning
Damn my heart gone deaf
I should have known
Look at the shape you´re in
I should have known
But I dove right in
One thing is certain
As I´m standing here
I should have known
Lay your hands in mine
Heal me one last time
Though I _________ forgive you yet
No, I _________ forgive you yet
You leave my heart in debt
I should have known
I was inside you
I should have known
There was that side of you
Came without a warning
Caught me unaware
I should have known
I´ve been here before
I should have known
Don´t want it anymore
One thing is for certain
I´m still standing here
I should have known
Lay your hands in mine
Feel me one last time
Though I _________ forgive you yet
No, I __________ forgive you yet
To leave my heart in debt
No, I _________ forgive yet
No, I _________ forgive yet
You leave my hear in debt
I should have known
Maybe you was right
Didn´t want a fight
I should have known
I should have known
_________ read the signs
_________ see the light
I should have known
2- It´s very common to people say “If I should known” or “If I knew it before” when something went wrong or not as foreseen. What do you believe has happened to the author?

3- Revise the modals:
Should: _________________________________________________
Would: _________________________________________________
Could: __________________________________________________
Can: _____________________________________________________
4- In the sentence “One thing is for certain as I´m standing here…” seems that the author is overcoming this problem. Is it possible to take all mistakes as lessons?

5- Read the sentence and answer.
“I should have known
Couldn´t read the signs”
In here seems like that we don´t see things or we don´t want to see them. Have you ever gone blind because you were insisting on something? Do you believe that the future is written or we are able to “control” it? _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

- My name is Bruno, I´m a Brazilian English teacher specialized in Applied Linguistics. Currently I work for a language institute teaching adults and in a regular school teaching elementary and high school. I believe knowledge is something to be shared and that´s why I post my classes to everybody who wants to study/learn English. In the last years I counted and have been counting on many partners who are always there: Adriana Pin, Bhyanka Itaborahy, Claudio Azevedo (Movie Segments), Diego Cassionato (Inglês com Rock) and Dani Bertocchi... You guys are also "guilty" for it. THANK YOU.
