Loose With Your Words

You been loose with your words

You been walkin it back, but you can’t get that genie back in the bottle

Spit a mouthful of hurt and it landed right back in your face…

Without a word to waste

Tell me how does it taste?

Don’t you wish you could unring that bell?

From that lonely cell

But you been loose with your words

You been runnin off at the mouth and done ran outta second chances

Tongue that cut to the bone

Now you’re standin on what’s left of your own..

Say you wanna go home

Mr Rickety Bones

Don’t you wish you could unsend that letter?

And get your thoughts together

But you had to be loose with your words and there ain’t no taking it back this time

Nah!

“Go ahead, shut him up”

Some things are better left unsaid

Ooh ooh…

Don’t you wish you could unsend that letter?

And get your thoughts together

But you been loose with your words and there ain’t no takin it back this time

No no not this time

Runnin off at the mouth like a fool

Nuthin you can do

Word by word it’s catchin up to you

Loose With Your Words
