I was flirting with a non native English speaker, and my turn of phrase was not understood. Less than a month later, she was engaged to some guy she just met. Green card fishing?
Lyrics
Right thing
Right thing
Right thing
My foot is pretty tasty
I don't have any doubt
I got a little hasty
Now I'm putting it in my mouth
What is the right thing anyway?
(chorus)
Why must I
Always be tongue-tied
When I only want to say the right thing?
I should have stuck to my line
I had to go ad-lib
I thought the truth would do fine
I should have told a fib
What is the right thing anyway?
(chorus)
Even though it's my native tongue
I can't find the words to say
Does it matter if it comes out wrong?
Would you know it anyway?
Right thing
(chorus)
