Things We Say

(专辑： Start Today - 1989)

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.

I can't believe the things we saw. A cutting word can ruin days.
I can't believe the things we say. Now I wish I hadn't spoken.
Can't you learn to take a fucking joke.

We say things we don't mean but friends understand.
Strength 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.

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 spoken.
Can't you learn to take a fucking joke.

But no ones laughing. I wish I could crack a smile, but I can't.
I know he's such a fucking jerk.
But jerks hurt too, and I'm not that cool that I can laugh.
I see because 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 around in my head.
Cause we've had our fun at your expense and that's wrong. And we know it.
You said we were friends. For friendship's sake, let's give it a break.

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!
