lyrics

If I relax, it won’t come into clear
I’m not a good dog, and I don’t want a beer
When I arrive, I know that you’ll know
But I won’t try to fight it, or put on a show

She’s in the bathroom and I’ve got the blues
Standing around in uncomfortable shoes
Left alone with nothing to say
Talking in circles, no claim to be made

(Shut Up) you’ve got words in your mouth
If you could please close it, no more would come out
(Shut Up) a concise way to say
If you could stop talking, that would be great

When we show up we’ll succumb to demands
The posturing friendships, the shaking of hands
We’ll make it work for the rest of the day
But when we get home you know we’ll throw it away

She’s in the bathroom and I’ve got the blues
Standing around in uncomfortable shoes
Left alone with nothing to say
Talking in circles, no claim to be made

(Shut Up) you’ve got words in your mouth
If you could please close it, no more would come out
(Shut Up) a concise way to say
If you could stop talking, that would be great

/Please shut up/
