Bite Your Tongue Lyrics - Singles - Tommy Stinson

You've got the answer for everything 

That's wrong with everybody else 

You've borrowed insights 

Should have borrowed someone else's mouth 

And I, I have seen you fallin' through the door 

When no one would even help you off the floor 

You dyed your hair you read Bukowski 

Now and live by every word 

You'd look the part 

If not for the clothes you wear that you're wearing out 

And I heard from a man named Seth 

That life, don't come to those who wait for death 

When you kiss and tell you leave a mark 

Till someone else bites your tongue 

Till someone else bites your tongue 

You've got your poets and now 

Your singers singing show tunes in the car 

You weren't so clever 

In your flowered prints and your ghetto scars 

And I want to watch the sunset on the beach 

Yeah, it's always been too far from my reach 

And you took a turn at Silver Lake 

And now you're calling it your home 

Too bad you can't grow up 

You're growing down in your wedding gown 

And I swear to God I've seen this play before 

Yeah, I smelt the popcorn on the floor 

When you kiss and tell you leave a mark 

Till someone else bites your tongue 

Till someone else bites your tongue 

Till someone else bites your tongue 

Till someone else bites your tongue
