Lyrics
Well I don't mean to piss you off
With things I might say
So when I try to shut my mouth
Well they come out anyway
So when I speak my mind
That's when we connect
Yeah, but that's not
Politically correct
Your head's so filled with thought
You can't use your imagination
Like a sky so filled with stars
You can't find a constellation
And everyone's so sensitive
To any bad vibration
You're so impressing
While we're regressing
And I don't mean to piss you off
With things I might say
And when I try to shut my mouth
They come out anyway
There's nothing I believe in more
Than my own insignificance
So why does everybody think
My words can make a difference?
I just don't have time to think up
Every social consequence
I just keep on talking
And you keep applauding
And I don't mean to piss you off
With things I might say
But when I try to shut my mouth
They come out anyway
And if you spoke your mind (A-a-ah)
You might feel more connected
Until you stand
Politically corrected
You lean a little to the left or the right but
You can only see who's on your side (On your side)
And look a little like a deer in the headlights
A little blind and hypnotized
So you conform with the best of intention
Change comes from inside (From inside)
And after all, that's what this country was founded on
Do nothing different just fall in line (A-a-ah)
Tell me, what happened to make us
So afraid that
You couldn't make a Mel Brooks movie today
No, I saw "Blazing Saddles" yesterday
I don't mean to piss you off (I don't mean to piss you off)
(With things I might say)
When I try to shut my mouth (When I try to shut my mouth)
(They come out anyway)
And I don't mean to piss you off (I don't mean to piss you off)
(With things I might say)
And when I try to shut my mouth
(They come out anyway)
Go!
