Verse 1

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, a - nother 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

Verse 2

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 shak - er

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 a -gain.

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

Chorus

I'm never speaking up a - gain

It only hurts me

I'd rather be a myste - ry

Than she de - sert me

Oh I'm never speaking up again

Starting now

Verse 3

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 fun - ny

Looks like the jokes on me, so call me captain backfire

Oh, a - nother 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
