Just Shut Your Mouth

You like to think you're something special
And you like to think that I am really not
So what?
You like to get your claws into me
Or on a chalkboard going through me
But you're not making me any less indifferent
Just shut your mouth (just shut your mouth)
Just shut your mouth 'cause you are talking
Your sticks and stones might break my bones
But your words are nothing to me
Shut your mouth (just shut your mouth)
Just shut your mouth 'cause I'm not listening
Keep your tongue bit, you're full of it
Your words are of no consequence to me
Ooh...
You can tell yourself it is working
That your words are really hurting
I'll just laugh
For a week and a half
If you've nothing useful to say now
No wit or wisdom still to convey
Just go home
I really don't want to know
Just shut your mouth (just shut your mouth)
Just shut your mouth 'cause you are talking
Your sticks and stones might break my bones
But your words are nothing to me
Shut your mouth (just shut your mouth)
Just shut your mouth 'cause I'm not listening
Keep your tongue bit, you're full of it
Your words are of no consequence to me
(Ooh) just shut your mouth
(Ooh) just shut your mouth
Don't open it up again

The Photocopies Michigan
Unapologetically old-school #indiepop in a mid-80s-to-early-90s vein, made without secret plans to fill stadiums (ugh). Think lo-fi #c86 #twee #postpunk #janglepop etc. Originally from London.

Dust in the Path of Love

supported by 19 fans who also own “Just Shut Your Mouth (EP)”
I desperately needed something intoxicating and cathartic and this is just what the doctor ordered. Catchy melodies slathered deep in fuzz.

Slow Torture of an Hourly Wage

supported by 18 fans who also own “Just Shut Your Mouth (EP)”
Nice single. Favorite track is "Seems Like We're Always Starting Over" for the snappy snare!

You Know You're Burning Someone
by The Reds, Pinks & Purples
supported by 17 fans who also own “Just Shut Your Mouth (EP)”
Me & Magdalena has always been a favourite RPP cover for me. Evocative of a dusty road movie, with distant state lines, sunsets, canyons and oceans; a glorious song about love, memories, loss, regrets and the tantalising, unknown possibilities and pleasures of the future. And I love the LDR cover, too! A sensual, fabulous collection of covers. Thanks, Glenn.

IV
by Letting Up Despite Great Faults
On their latest LP, the Austin group peel away the synth and distortion to highlight the jangly melodies at the core of their songs.

On “Exposure & Response,” Troper writes the kind of songs that would have filled stadiums in a bygone era.

Think Murmur, think The Good Earth. Guitars jangle and sparkle. Timeless, feelgood pop, what the world needs now.
