Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I, I-I, I, I, I-I, I.
I wanna tell ya, tell ya, but I just can't speak.
This shouldn't be so difficult.
Why-y. why-why-why-why-why-why,
Tell me why I see you and I just can't breathe.
You're like a bullet, girl, to my heart,
The very thing that I need,
Look at how you get to me
I can never be myself,
How can I when I'm stuck in hell?
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Wanna tell you how I feel inside
But every time I go and try
Mutterin', mutterin', muttereh-ing
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Don't leave,
I know I effed it up,
That's my luck,
That's just my luh uh uck.
Here I go, Here I go and do it again
You're type,
And I'm just so tongue tuh-ied.
Why-why-why, why can't I get it right?
The words just won't come out,
They wanna take me down
But I'm still around
You're like a bullet, girl, to my heart
Your like a very far shooting star,
The very thing that I need
Look at how you get to me
I can never be myself,
How can I when I'm stuck in hell?
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Wanna tell you how I feel inside
But every time I go and try
Mutterin', mutterin', muttereh-ing
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
You're like a bullet, girl, to my heart
Your like a very far shooting star,
The very thing that I need
Look at how you get to me [Repeat x2]
I can never be myself,
How can I when I'm stuck in hell?
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Wanna tell you how I feel inside
But every time I go and try
Mutterin', mutterin', muttereh-ing
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Muttereh-ing.
Stuttereh, stuttered, stuttereh-ing
The Friday Night Boys’ “Stuttering” is a pop-rock song about a guy who finds it hard to express his feelings to the girl he likes. He describes how he becomes tongue-tied and stuttering around her, making it difficult for him to articulate his emotions. He wishes to tell her how he feels, but he feels stuck in an emotional limbo, where his speech impediment is stopping him from revealing his true feelings. The repetition of the lyrics “stuttering, stutterin’, stuttereh-ing” underscores the main theme of the song.
Throughout the song, the man compares his love interest to a “bullet” that penetrates his heart and a “shooting star” that amazes him. He acknowledges that he can never be his true self around her because he’s “stuck in hell.” However, he is determined to be with her, and he won’t let his speech impediment prevent him from being with the one he loves. The song has a catchy, upbeat rhythm and a relatable storyline that will resonate with anyone who has struggled to express their emotions to someone they like.

You walk into the room and I
I, I-I, I, I, I-I, I.
I wanna tell ya, tell ya, but I just can't speak.
This shouldn't be so difficult.
As soon as you enter, I get tongue-tied, I try to express myself, but I fail to do so, which is not easy.
Why-y. why-why-why-why-why-why,
Tell me why I see you and I just can't breathe.
Why does seeing you make me breathless?
You're like a bullet, girl, to my heart,
You're like a very far shooting star,
The very thing that I need,
Look at how you get to me
You are the perfect match for me, the one I've been searching for, and your presence deeply affects me.
I can never be myself,
How can I when I'm stuck in hell?
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing
Stutterin', stutterin', stuttereh-ing

I cannot act naturally around you because I feel trapped and anxious. I want to express my feelings to you, but I cannot do so, ending up muttering and stuttering.
Don't leave,
I know I effed it up,
That's my luck,
That's just my luh uh uck.
Here I go, Here I go and do it again
Please do not go away from me, even though I messed up. This always seems to happen to me, and I'm about to repeat it.
You're type,
And I'm just so tongue tuh-ied.
Why-why-why, why can't I get it right?
The words just won't come out,
They wanna take me down
But I'm still around
You are my type, and I'm still struggling with stuttering. Why can't I express myself correctly? My words are holding me back, but I'm still here.
Muttereh-ing.
Stuttereh, stuttered, stuttereh-ing
Still muttering and stuttering.

this song along with many of their songs have been on my summer playlist on my ipod since 2008, I found them on myspace back in the day and I just loved the feel of their music :)
