Run My Mouth Lyrics - Singles - George Watsky

verse 1 

I tend to vent a lot. it's hard to end a thought 

I get pent up and I guess I don't know when to stop 

if i get a mental block, you can hear a pencil drop 

but if not i'm all talk like a rent a cop 

I don't wanna mock 

ever yet I let it slip 

said i gotta get a grip 

cause i know you're delicate 

and i'm pretty adament 

i can learn some ettiquette 

bet on it that i can talk a book and never edit it 

seldom elegant, guilty of embellishing 

yelling but i'm holding shit together like i'm gelatin 

everyone's selfish and jealous, I'm hella slim 

but I gotta bigger mouth than a pelican 

check a fella sing, messing up the melody 

I know my alphabet, A to Elemopee 

i like you, it's shouldn't be shocking 

my heart's beating just as loud as i'm talking 

chorus 

Danny: I know you know 

I know you know 

sometimes I say things 

I don't quite mean 

George: don't be alarmed 

I mean no harm 

Danny: Ca-a-a-a-an't I run my mouth? 

verse 2 

i'm a fast talker 

louder than a brass knocker, 

cricket or a grasshopper 

not another. word 

i don't want to ass kiss 

sniffing like a mastiff 

that'll be my last ditch 

effort to be. heard 

take me as a hostage 

i'm feeling lost 

with my neck out like an ostrich 

totally absurd 

I squawk like a bird 

cause my clumsy heart feels like it's doing cartwheels 

put me in a dunce cap 

treat me like a hunchback 

say my mind is one track 

every single. day 

call my mug a megaphone 

I don't beg and moan 

if i get in bed alone 

i don't want to say 

you're forgiven briefly 

if i call you sweet pea 

then you say to eat me 

and i don't know which way 

i've had a taste and i know you're gourmet 

An argument's just the makeup foreplay 

chorus 

George: 

Bridge 

Danny: Listen 

calm down 

hear me 

watch your mouth 

Careful 

that stung 

give me lip 

Bite my tongue 

I'd say 

stop it (that) 

but we both 

talk shit (trash) 

How about we work it out? 

(repeat) 

Chorus after Bridge 

Danny: You know, I know 

You know I know 

Sometimes You say things 

You don't quite mean 

George: I'm not alarmed 

If you mean no harm 

Danny: Go ahead and ru-u-un your mouth 

chorus 

verse 3 

take the silent type, gimme the opposite 

you look so damn sexy when you're talking shit 

every time i want to say to put a sock in it 

i melt again and buy your ass a box of chocolate 

i guess that's why they call me georgie porgie puddin pie 

before i kiss my girl i put her on a sugar high 

and then we cry after a little old 'how are you?' 

turns into an argument I bet'll scar you 

is it hard to always have to complain 

taking something mundane and give yourself a tongue sprain? 

you talk about your day and go off for a year 

and i could walk away or hold the phone off of my ear 

I don't love what i hear, but i've got to stay 

cause man, smart girls have a lot to say 

i want to shout with someone that i'm down with 

there's no one I'd rather run my mouth with 

chorus (fade out)
