My stupid mouth
Has got me in trouble
I said too much again
To a date over dinner yesterday
And I could see
He was offended
He 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 girl to do
I guess she better find one soon
We bit our lips
Looked out the window
Rolling tiny balls of napkin paper
I played a quick game of chess with the salt and pepper shaker
I could see clearly
An indelible line was drawn
Between what was good, what just slipped out and what went wrong
Oh, the way he 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 girl to do
I guess she better find one
I'm never speaking up again
It only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery
Than he desert me
Oh I'm never speaking up again
Starting now
Starting now
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
I just wanna be funny
Looks like the joke's on me
So call me "Misses Backfire"
I'm never speaking up again
It only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery
Than he desert me
Oh, I'm never speaking up again
I'm never speaking up again
I'm never speaking up again
Starting now
