Jazmine Sullivan
Stuttering (American Idol Performance)
Oh

I ain't usually lost for words
This is gotta be a first
And I'm tryna find the reason why I'm stu-stu-stu-stutterin
Something funny's happenin'
I'm a place I've never been
And there's got to be a reason why I'm stu-stu-stu-stutterin

Every time you look my way
Something in me feels so strange
And I'm startin' to think you are why I'm stu-stu-stutterin

I said hey, hey, hey hello
And my my my my name is Jessica
And its so frustrating 'cause I don't wanna let you down
My mind is racing
But it won't come up

Can't believe that I can't talk
But it's not my fault
'Cause there's something that you do that's got me stu-stu-stu-stutterin'
There's so much that I wanna say
But something's getting in my way
And I've got to figure out
How to stop stu-stu-stuttering
I said hell hey hey, hello
And my my my my my my my my name is Jessica
And its so frustrating 'cause I don't wanna let you down
My mind is racing
But it won't come up

Try to breathe, but I'm suffocating
Just be me, but it's complicated
I wanna tell you who I am, where I'm from
Where I go, when I wanna be loved

I want you to know me better
Once I get my thoughts together
Should be so easy to tell you how I'm feeling
But I can't stop stuttering

Stuttering, stuttering da da
Stuttering
I ain't usually lost for words
This is got to be a first
And I'm startin to think you are why I'm stu-stu-stu-stuttering
