Wrong Words


Why is it
I can`t do anything right 
God knows I try 
it would appear
I can`t help myself
just stick my foot in my mouth !

and the result .....
is pain and stress
and an evil look my way
I hate myself each time
as I`m lectured
for being stupid and getting it wrong !

all wrong words
streaming from me
upsetting one and all
I try so hard
to say nothing at all
but they just seem to flow freely
