Why Do You Shoot Off Your Mouth...
Why do you shoot off your mouth?
And Now, Bang you hurt my heart have all your feelings gone south?
I just called to say I love you.

And Now, Bang you crush my heart, has all your compassion gone south?
I just called to feel you near.
And Now, Bang, you hurt my heart, what's wrong don't you care?

And Now, Bang, my heart is hurting has your love for me gone south?
I only want to love you.
And Now, Bang, I'm hurting and forming a distorted view.
