My Stupid Mouth (any Given Thursday Version) Lyrics

My stupid mouth has got me in trouble
I've said too much again
To a date
over dinner yesterday
And I could see that she was offended
She said,
"Well, anyway..."
Just dying for a subject change

Oh,
another social casualty
Score one more for me
How could I forget Mama
said, "Think before speaking."
No filter in my head
Oh, what's
a boy to do?
I guess he'd better find one soon

Get this, we bit our
lips
She looked out the window, rolling tiny balls of napkin paper
I
played a quick game of chess with the salt and pepper shaker
And I could see
clearly an indelible line was drawn
Between what was good, what just slipped
out, and what went wrong

Oh, the way she feels about me has
changed
Thanks for playing, try again
How could I forget Mama said,
"Think before speaking."
No filter in my head
Oh, what's a boy
to do?
I guess he'd better find one

I'm never speaking up again
It
only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery than she desert me
Oh, I'm never
speaking up again starting now
Starting now

No, I was not
listening
Southern bitch didn't even,
Come around again
Yes, my head
is swirling
Welcome to my world
It's population: one, and you can't
come
So, take it or leave it
That's just who I am
It might be hard to
believe it
But you know, but you know, but you got to understand
Look,
now

One more thing, why's it my fault?
So, maybe I tried to
hard
But it's all because of this desire
Just wanna be liked
Looks
like the joke is on me now
So call me Captain Backfire

I'm never
speaking up again
It only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery than she
desert me

Oh, I'm never speaking up again
I'm never speaking up
again
I'm never speaking up again
Starting now, starting now
