Don’t Talk So Much
[Verse 1]
Your mouth is moving but noting's being said
Blah-blah's on your mind
Is that all that's really in your head?
Why are your thoughts so blind?

[Verse 2]
Poverty of consciousness, poverty of mind
Poverty of what really matters
Shut up will you, eat before you speak
Shovel it in before you shovel it out

[Chorus]
And you've, you've got it, you've got it in your head
It's a picture of the universe drawn from your TV set

[Verse 3]
Your mind is running on the lowest setting
You're just like all your friends
No one bothers to explore the questions
Life's just one big dead еnd

[Chorus]
Cause you've, you've got it, you'vе got it in your head
It's a picture of the universe drawn from your TV set
And you've, you've got it, you've got it in your mind
It's the basic misconception that your words can fill up time
[Bridge]
Don't talk so much that you miss your chance to learn
Listen and you'll grow what you know

[Verse 4]
Your life is headed in the wrong direction
It's time to straighten it out
Find yourself a new affection
That's bigger than your mouth

[Chorus]
Cause you've, you've got it, you've got it in your head
It's a picture of the universe drawn from your TV set
And you've, you've got it, you've got it in your mind
It's the basic misconception that your words can fill up time

[Outro]
Your mouth is moving but nothing's being said
Blah-blah's on your mind
