Vow of Silence

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

And 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 gotta keep it to yourself, you 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

Woah, 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
