Well I don't mean to piss you off with things I might say
So when I try to shut my mouth 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
We're so impressing while we're regressing

Cuz 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 you might feel more connected
Well, 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.
You look a little like a deer in the headlights
A little blind and little hypnotized.
So you conform with the best of intention
Change comes from inside.
And after all that's what this country was founded on
Do nothing different just fall in line.

Tell me what happened to make us so afraid
You couldn't make a Mel Brooks movie today
I saw Blazing Saddles yesterday

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
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
