How can you be so horrible? 
The things you say are terrible 
You make me feel ashamed 
When you call me names 
 [bad word] you think it's wise 
To tell those wicked lies 
You play such silly games 
When you call me names 

Stones and sticks don't hurt like bricks 
No skin off my nose 
I'll take the flack and hand it back 
It's just the way that it goes 
You dish the dirt but names don't hurt 
You never break my bones 
I'll grit my teeth but underneath 
It' only sticks and stones 

You think you win a prize 
To cut me down to size 
You make outrageous claims 
When you call me names 

Stones and sticks don't hurt like bricks 
No skin off my nose 
I'll take the flack and hand it back 
It's just the way that it goes 
You dish the dirt but names don't hurt 
You never break my bones 
I'll grit my teeth but underneath 
It' only sticks and stones 

How can you say those things 
When they aim to sting 
It always sounds the same 
When you call me names 

Stones and sticks don't hurt like bricks 
No skin off my nose 
I'll take the flack and hand it back 
It's just the way that it goes 
You dish the dirt but names don't hurt 
You never break my bones 
I'll grit my teeth but underneath 
It' only sticks and stones 

You never say what you mean 
You never mean what you say 
You never say what you mean 
You never mean what you say 
You never say what you mean 
When you call me names 
When you call me names 
When you call me names 
When you call me names
