Things We Say lyrics

[Originally by Gorilla Biscuits]

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 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 f*cking 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 f*cking joke?
But no ones laughing
I wish I could crack a smile
But I can't
I know he's such a f*cking j*rk
But j*rks 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 as*h*le
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
Well 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 spoken
Can't you learn to take a f*cking joke?
