lyrics

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
