LYRICS:
Why can't you say my name?
Can you even pronounce it?
It looks a little different
I know you that you're scared
You'll probably mess it up
I don't know what to tell you?
But it won't hurt you when you do
Why can't you say my name?
Can you even announce it?
To a room full of your family
Like your mom or dad
Would you lower your voice when you get to the hard parts
I know I'd probably do that too
I wanna make it easy for you
But it looks how it sounds ‘
I wanna make it easy for you
But it looks how it sounds
Just take a deep breath and sound it out slowly
I swear it's really pretty
Like an asteroid from space
I'm just a minor planet who wants some attention
Before I crash into the earth
I want you to say it
And I want you to know it
The way you know Oprah
Or even Jessica Biel
It's a lot to ask so I shouldn't expect much
It doesn't change how I feel
I wanna make it easy for you
But it looks how it sounds
I wanna make it easy for you
But it looks how it sounds
I don't know what exotic means but I think you're gonna tell me
Sounds vaguely erotic but in an unfamiliar way, you say
You wanna get to know me better
I get that it's a lot of letters
Just give it your best shot
Why can't you say my name?
Can you even pronounce it?
It looks a little different
I know that you're scared
You'll probably mess it up
I don't know what to tell you
But it won't kill you if you do
I wanna make it easy for you
But it looks how it sounds
I wanna make it easy for you
But it looks how it sounds
