Lyrics

[Verse 1]
The word that I heard was so absurd
I can't believe it slipped from my lips
The tongue with which it was sung was so dumb
I wished to pull it from my skull
[Verse 2]
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh, uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh, uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh, uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh, uh
[Verse 3]
The word that I heard was so absurd
I can't believe it slipped from my lips
The tongue with which it was sung was so dumb
I wished to pull it from my skull
[Verse 4]
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh, uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh, uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh, uh
What the fuck was I thinking? Uh, uh
