Vow Of Silence

(الألبوم: Dinosaurchestra - 2006)

I'll never have a chance to say
Everything I want to say
But that's okay, I don't need
To say a thing anyway

Just want to take it in
See the world, watch it spin
Learn to play the violin
I'll even try to shed
Any words from my head
Think in Mentalese instead

Don't call me on a telephone
I don't wanna be alone
But I have grown out of it
So leave a message at the tone

Just want to take it in
See the world, watch it spin
Learn to play the violin
I'll even try to shed
Any words from my head
Think in Mentalese instead

And I'll take a vow of silence
(Shut up, shut up, shut up.)
I'll take a vow of silence
(Shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up, shut up, shut up.)
I'll take a vow of...

Silence means that you can't speak
You can't let things out, they stay inside
You just sit and nod like a quiet freak
And you hold your tongue and you swallow your pride
And if you're travelling down the street
And suddenly witness a crime
You've gotta keep it to yourself
You've gotta keep it inside
Your quiet little mind
Until the end of time

And you've got to...
Shut up, shut up, shut up. (Seen and not heard.)
Shut up, shut up, shut up. (Not a single word)
Shut up, shut up, shut up. (For the rest of your life.)
Shut up, shut up, shut up

Now I'm no silent snob
But Teller and Silent Bob
Tend to do an awful job
But let me tell you, son
Harpo Marx is the one
I wouldn't be surprised
If he didn't have a tongue

Whoa, I'll take a vow of silence
(Shut up, shut up, shut up.)
I'll take a vow of silence
(Shut up, shut up, shut up
Shut up, shut up, shut up.)

I'll take a vow of...
I'll take a vow of...
I'll take a vow of...
Silence...
Silence...
Silence
