Trouty Mouth is an original song featured in Original Song, the sixteenth episode of Season Two. It is sung by Santana, in an attempt to declare her love for Sam, while also making fun of his large mouth. She is accompanied by Tina on the piano. Before being able to finish the song, Sam interrupts, offended by the constant mouth jokes. Santana writes this song with help from Tina.

After the New Directions discover that they are forbidden to sing My Chemical Romance's Sing, Rachel suggests that they should write original songs for Regionals as it will increase their chances of winning. Santana protests when Rachel and Quinn offer to write one, saying that all of them should have the chance to write their own songs. Thus, Will assigns them to write original songs.

After Will rejects Hell to the No as a song for Regionals, Santana again offers "Trouty Mouth," saying she has written another verse for the song (though Sam objects by holding up a "Hell No" sign). The additional verse was not performed, or included, in the version released on iTunes.

Lyrics[]

Santana:
Guppy Face, Trouty Mouth
Is that how people's lips look
Where you come from in the South?

Grouper Mouth, Froggy Lips
I love suckin' on those salamander lips

Wanna put a fish hook
In those lips, so cherry red
If you tried hard enough
You could suck a baby's head!

Whoo!
Oh, yeah-eah, yeah
