I censor me. I wait my turn
Ears, not mouth, they said
Is the way to learn
And small talk is so very small
Nuthin' good to say
Don't say nuthin' at all
We'll never see who I might be
I censor me. I censor me
I censor me
I censor me, what I would do
Wrong somehow
I'd better think it through
And what if I can't do it well
Best not to try
Why show and tell
We'll never see who I might be
I censor me. I censor me
I censor me
My feelings rise, I tamp them down
The social swim? I sink. I drown
Where bold men dare, I flinch, I stall
Can hidden pride cause a fall
We'll never see who I might be
I censor me. I censor me
I censor me
Down city streets they floor the gas
Men furious driving way too fast
Cause crumpled wrecks
In wreckage they die
Not me
My rage I'm gonna keep it inside.
My nose is clean, my pants are too
No chance I'll take a chance with you
We'll never see who I might be
I censor me. I censor me
I censor me
