I wanna hear your sad sad voice come to me loud and clear

I wanna hear your lips and tongue form the words no ears should hear

And I wanna watch you while your face reddens with fear

And watch your eyes get all clouded up with tears



This thing is such a stupid mess

So nuts you never would have guessed

You better watch yourself

Your words just tell



Watching your sundress just blowing in the breeze

This time of year I want to breathe but I just sneeze

And the sunshine is just killing me my degrees

And I go to smell the roses just to get stung by the bees



Your words just free me day by day

You better watch the things you say

Button your lip

Your tongue just slips



I don't need to read about myself in other towns

I don't want to hear all you have seen or what you've found

And when you turn for the second go around

Just keep your mouth shut and your ear down to the ground
