My Stupid Mouth
by: John Mayer
my stupid mouth has got me in trouble
I said too much again
to a date over dinner yesterday
and I could see she was offended
she said "well anyway"
just dying for a subject change
Chorus:
oh, another social casualty
score one more for me
how could I forget
mama said "think before speaking"
no filter in my head
oh, what's a boy to do?
I guess he better find one soon
we bit our lips
she looked out the window
rolling tiny balls of napkin paper
I played a quick game of chess
with the salt and pepper shaker
and I could see clearly
an indelible line was drawn
between what was good, what just slipped out
and what went wrong
I'm never speaking up again
it only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery than she desert me
oh, I'm never speaking up again
starting now
one more thing
why is it my fault?
so maybe I try too hard
but it's all because of this desire
I just want to be liked; I just want to be funny
look like the joke's on me
so call me Captain Backfire
I'm never speaking up again
it only hurts me
I'd rather be a mystery than she desert me
oh, I'm never speaking up again
I'm never speaking up again
I'm never speaking up again
starting now

John Mayer
For those of you who dont know, John Mayer is the coolest!! The original idea was that all of us were going to go to see his concert on the 30th in Dallas, but it got sold out before some of us were able to buy them. So, we bought tickets for the Austin show and we are gonna have a road trip!! Fran said we might be able to spend the night at her house which would be pretty nice of her parents. I still need to tell my parents where these tickets are for, but i guess they will find out some how.
JM's music is so sweet! Its mainly accoustic stuff with a little band behind it. I sat at the music hall computer lab today and downloaded every song on his new album, Room for Squares, and made the cd. The damn computer was crazy so it took me 2 1/2 hours to make the cd. I was so mad by the time it was finished, but hey its a bad ass cd and I'm glad I have it now.
Not much has happend lately. Turns out this is my 81st entry. My one year aniversary of writing in this journal is coming up on the 14th of this month. Look for something special on here for that one. Also, for the 100th entry, which probably wont come around for a few months, but its still something to look forward to.
I slept in today which I know is bad, but its getting harder and harder to wake up. I think we are all having severe sleep deprivation. I guess it doesn't help me writing this at 2:25am does it?? lol. Well, thats all for now, I'll go listen to some more JM.
