Lyrics
My voice has no choice
But to st st st stutter
I can?t say the words
that my brain wants to utter
There?s a frog in my throat, in my eyes there?s a mote
And I can?t sing a note because the cat got my tongue
When I was very very young
I been struck dumb
I?m all fingers and thumbs
My guitar won?t strum
When I open my mouth
The words fly south
They just lie between my t t t teeth
Give me untold grief
See my eyelids flutter
When I st st st st stutter
Pictures in my head
Always fl fl fl flicker
My brain and my voice
Always b b b bicker
But I?ll tell you this
And I wont mince my words
The thoughts in my head are heaven sent
And my inner voice is truly eloquent
Here I can say what I really really meant
Clear to the ear
Straight, not bent
Hit me with a hammer
I?ll still st st st stammer
What I try to express
Is a m m m mess
Got me in its grip
Try to fly I always trip
Slip cup and lip
Blip blip blip
That?s torn it
Rip rip rip
The record starts to skip
Pip pip pip
My mind starts to slip
Into self censorship
My voice has no choice
But to st st st stutter
I can't say the things
that my brain wants to utter
the words all come out
with a spl spl spl spl splutter
my brain is full of butter
