loose-lipped
Can't keep quiet
Loose-lipped means tending to reveal secrets or speak indiscreetly.
Someone who is loose-lipped can't keep confidential information to themselves: Don't tell him anything—he's loose-lipped.
The image is of lips that don't stay firmly closed, letting words slip out that should stay in.
