Things We Say Lyrics by Gorilla Biscuits

Start Today

1989

[Verse 1]
Humor's got a place like all things
Be aware of the pain it can sometimes bring
A joke to you might not be so funny
So take the time and think it out before you open up your mouth
[Chorus]
I can't believe the things we say
A cutting word can ruin days
I can't believe the things we say
Now I wish I hadn't spoke
Can't you learn to take a fucking joke?
[Verse 2]
We say things we don't mean, but friends understand
Respect and humor don't always go hand in hand
A joke to you might not be so funny
So take the time and think it out before you open up your mouth
[Chorus]
I can't believe the things we say
A cutting word can ruin days
I can't believe the things we say
Now I wish I hadn't spoke
Can't you learn to take a fuckin' joke?
[Bridge]
But no one's laughing
I wish that I could crack a smile, but I can't
I know he's just a fucking jerk
But jerks hurt too
And I'm not that cool that I can laugh
I see 'cause it's happened to me
And I think I was an asshole when I said what I said
It's just a sick sense of humor rolls 'round in my head
'Cause we've had our fun at your expense
And that's wrong
And we know it
[Interlude]
You said we were friends
For friendship's sake
Let's give it a break
[Chorus]
I can't believe the things we say
A cutting word can ruin days
I can't believe the things we say
