Words (Big Mouth) - Ian Hunter

Well, it’s me, I didn’t mean to wake you

I owe you an apology about last night

Well, I was just letting off steam

Black dog lurkin' in the alleyway

Alcohol robbin' with the key

Open up the floodgates and out it comes

Like a river full of gravity

Ah words, little beads of poison

Letting out the venom

One thing for certain, baby

I got a big mouth

I’ll change, I promise you I’m gonna change

I gotta turn a new leaf

And this will be the very last ime I put my foot in it

Black dog putting these words in my mouth

Well, don’t take any notice of me

I don’t mean to vent my spleen

I hate it when that happens

Just words, cruel little clusters

My very own venacular

Hey, one thing for certain, baby

I’ve got a big mouth, I got a big mouth

Don’t leave, I’m beggin' you, please, don’t leave

These words are only make-believe

You can take them with a grain of salt

Words can eat a man alive

Black dog robbin' in some broken bar

Hand claps rattling my bones

Hound dogs fading into wilderness

And I just wanna come home

Ah words, nasty little lizards

Grammatical bacteria

With one thing for certain, baby

I got a big mouth, I got a big mouth, I got a big mouth, yeah

Just words getting on your nerves

Little shots of how I am

I got a big mouth, I got a big mouth, I got a big mouth (he's got a big mouth)

Yagadee, yagadee, yagadee …

Callin' out my weary

I got a big mouth (he's got a big mouth)
