Lyrics
Shut Your Mouth (BPM 92) 3:15
Words & Melody by D.B.M.
Now I see, society, so darn sure of their facts
It's internet, and magazines, well, billboards sure got tact
When I say hello, it just polite to say hi in return
When they bring up their life story, it really makes me burn
They seem to want to tell you where in life that they come from
Either Tennessee, Florida or California
(Chorus)
Hush your mouth
I don't care, just said hello
Don't care about your Rolex or your shiny brand new phone
Hush your mouth
Don't want your storied life or
How your kids are acting, or how you met your lovely wife
Shhhh...
Well I love me some football games on Sunday afternoon
My pulse is up, as I read the line up, kick-off sure is soon
But what I don't need is Mr. Sportscaster man telling me
That my teams' kicker has not missed since 2003
They seem to want to dazzle you with figures and some facts
And they can't wait to tell you, the last time he was sacked, oh no...
(Chorus)
Hush your mouth
I don't care, just tuned you in
I don't care about some crazy rule, just let the play begin
Hush your mouth
Let's check that replay booth, hope they find that poor guys' tooth
Owww...
(SOLOS)
(Chorus)
Hush your mouth
I don't care, just said hello
I don't know about your way of life, well I'm glad I got my own
Hush your mouth
Well don't tell me that you're left or right - just say American!
Hush your mouth, shut your mouth, Hush your mouth, shhh...
