Careless Talk And Silly Lies

(アルバム： Between The Lines - 1990)

Your careless talk can buy you trouble
You'd better keep opinions to yourself
What you give out, you get back double
So stop your lying, it's a waste of time
You know damn well that you're out of line

But these rumours are not true
Is the message getting through
Your careless talk and your silly lies
Can be misunderstood
Maybe you hoped they would

Most of the time it's your invention
You just can't help repeating silly lies
I'm not convinced in your good intentions
I hear you telling everyone you meet
That I just don't care, and I'm indiscreet

But these rumours are not true
Is the message getting through
Your careless talk and your silly lies
Can be misunderstood
Maybe you hoped they would

What you give out, you get back double
So stop your lying, it's a waste of time
You know damn well that you're out of line

But these rumours are not true
Is the message getting through
Your careless talk and your silly lies
Can be misunderstood

The stories you create
Make lies communicate
Your careless talk and your silly lies
Can force a heart to break

But these rumours are not true
Is the message getting through
Your careless talk and your silly lies
Can be misunderstood
