Wrong Thing Right Then Lyrics
So here's what happened this time,
I'm sure that it's the last time
I'm over going over it, it's over once again.
What am I gonna do with me?
I blew the oppertunity
By sayin' something assanign
I've gotta watch this mouth of mine.
I sure said the wrong thing right then
Try to forgive (?)
I'll never say that again
As long as I live
As I remember the events
I'm trying now to make some sense
My mouth is my archnemisis, you'd think that I'd be used to this.
Nothin' nice to say, sticks and stones
I blew it now, and I'm all alone
Let me take it back, it was only a joke (?)
My mouth is shut but my heart is broke.
I sure said the wrong thing right then
Try to forgive (?)
I'll never say that again
As long as I live
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I was way ahead, I shoulda quit
Instead I put my foot in it,
My mouth I hold responsible
What I need now's a miracle
So that's what happened this time,
No question, it's the last time,
(?) If I can hide the list beneath my skin
I'll mind the mouth that got me in.
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing, try to forgive
I'll never say that again, as long as I live
I'm sure that it's the last time
I'm over going over it, it's over once again.
What am I gonna do with me?
I blew the oppertunity
By sayin' something assanign
I've gotta watch this mouth of mine.
I sure said the wrong thing right then
Try to forgive (?)
I'll never say that again
As long as I live
As I remember the events
I'm trying now to make some sense
My mouth is my archnemisis, you'd think that I'd be used to this.
Nothin' nice to say, sticks and stones
I blew it now, and I'm all alone
Let me take it back, it was only a joke (?)
My mouth is shut but my heart is broke.
I sure said the wrong thing right then
Try to forgive (?)
I'll never say that again
As long as I live
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I was way ahead, I shoulda quit
Instead I put my foot in it,
My mouth I hold responsible
What I need now's a miracle
So that's what happened this time,
No question, it's the last time,
(?) If I can hide the list beneath my skin
I'll mind the mouth that got me in.
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing
I sure said the wrong thing, right then
I said the wrong thing, try to forgive
I'll never say that again, as long as I live

Spelling errors:
"oppertunity" = "opportunity" "assanign" = "asinine" (asinine is to donkey as canine is to dog) "archnemisis" = "arch-nemesis"
Interpretation:
"Let me take it back, it was only a joke" = "Let me take it back, I was only jokin'" (next line, broke = broken)
"If I can hide the list beneath my skin" = "If I get out of this one with my skin"
"Try to forgive" is correct in all occurrences
