SPEAK IT, SING IT!
When learning a new song, speak the words first and make sure your mouth positions are frontal. Where is the breath, placement, phrasing? Speak it a second time as if it is a monologue. Acknowledge what the song is about and who you are speaking to. Let yourself be that character.

Proper positions around the mouth are essential to helping with clear and precise diction. Keep your vowels frontal and do not pull back the corners of the lips. Follow this rule and singers will have an easier time holding notes and being understood to the audiences every word.
