When to Shut Up

from Top of the Pops (album) by The Photocopies

/

lyrics

You don’t know when to shut up
You need to shut it down
You’re shooting your mouth all over this town

You'd better shut up
You’re spreading it around
I really didn’t want anyone to find out
Oh oh oh

Nobody needs to know the way we are
Just let ‘em think you’re only a friend
I never meant to let it go this far
All the chattering has just got to end

You don’t know when to shut up
You need to shut it down
You’re blabbing your mouth all over this town

You'd better shut up
You’re spreading it around
I wasn’t in a hurry for them to find out

Know when to shut up
I need it shut down
Soon it’s gonna be all over this town

All over the town
All over the town
If you don’t want to break up
You’d better shut yourself up

about

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.
