Can't Say What I Mean

I think that this is close, but that the lyrics are:

Nothing I say's so important That it can't be shortened to fit on a badge I wish that I could be contrite And deliver her sound bites, but here is the catch

I can't say what I mean I can't say what I mean

Everybody applauds her From the lord to the hoards and the/a nation is swept By her one to one conversations In adult education - I would tell her except

I can't say what I mean I can't say what I mean I can't say what I mean

Do you know when you go I get all tongue-tied? I'm the same all again back when you arrive

Can't say you're unattractive But I'm out of practice at this sort of thing It's not like I'm talking Italian Or I wear a medallion and a sovereign ring

I can't say what I mean I can't say what I mean I can't say what I mean

Do you know when you go I get all tongue-tied? I'm the same all again back when you arrive

What a face What a face Can you blame me for pulling a face? What a waste What a face

Great things can be expressed In fifteen words or less and pinned onto your heart But words just don't do it justice The world and its crust is still drifting apart

I can't say what I mean I can't say what I mean I can't say what I mean

Do you know when you go I get all tongue-tied? I'm the same all again back when you arrive Do you know when you go I get all tongue-tied? I'm the same all again back when you arrive

What a face What a face Can you blame me for pulling a face? What a waste What a face
