Story Behind The Song
Someone I know said some extremely insensitive things during a highly
emotional time (impending death of a friend). This person was often prone to saying such things. This is my anthem for all those big mouthed clods who never think before they speak!
Song Description
A fast paced, guitar driven country ballad with a simple but poignant melody line, coupled with rather searing lyrics about a very mean, insensitive person.

Lyrics
Your Mouth (Is Bigger Than Your Brain)
Mean words flow like bitter honey from the black hole in your face
Somehow you form a sentence in that big old empty space
There above your shoulders floats a vacant storage bin
No connection to the canyon - between your nose and chin!
Once while in the ocean you were shootin' off your mouth
You were swimming North - that whale was swimming South
Your tiny brain coulnd't comprehend what your giant mouth had done!
You had heartburn for a decade - guess that whale won!
Chorus:
There's not too much grey matter in the warehouse that's your head
You fired your synapses and your cerebellum fled
Now you just get pleasure from causing others pain
An anomaly -size of a pea - your mouth is bigger than your brain!
I'd need a high powered microscope to see your frontal lobe
There's not enough medulla for the aliens to probe
When your lips are flappin' - they form a great abyss!
You once formed a Cat-5 hurricane when you tried to blow a kiss! (Chorus)
Bridge:
Well you're a freak of nature - and nature can be cruel
Not as cruel as you - you big mouthed pea brained fool! (Chorus)
