[Verse 1: Susi Hyldgaard & Robert Wyatt]
If you have nothin' to say
Maybe you just shouldn't bother to say it
Speak for yourself

[Verse 2: Susi Hyldgaard]
On the other hand, if you have somethin' to say
You should speak what's on your mind
That's what I think

[Verse 3: Susi Hyldgaard & Robert Wyatt]
It's all just words
Of course it is
What else would it be?
Words, that's what we are talking about

[Verse 4: Susi Hyldgaard & Robert Wyatt]
You can't just say, "Words"
That doesn't mean anything, you have to say one word or another
This word or that word
But I don't want to say this word or that word
I want to say our words
Any word, words
In the sense of words

[Verse 5: Susi Hyldgaard & Robert Wyatt]
Yes, I see what you mean
But what if I were to say one word?
What would you think then?
It depends on the word
