My stupid mouth
Has got me in trouble
I said too much again
To a date over dinner yesterday

And I could see
She was offended
She said,'Well anyway'
Just dying for a subject change

Oh, it's 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 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 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 one lives, no one lives here
Someone has to be there
Come around again
Just my head has spun
Welcome to my world
Some population round
But you can't come

So take it to me though
Thats just her, here I'am
If your holding me, but you know
But you know it
You got to understand

One more thing
Why is it my fault?
So maybe I try too hard
But it's all because of this desire

I just wanna be liked
Looks like the jokes on me
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
