Our Lips Are Sealed - Matthew Sweet, Susanna Hoffs

Can you hear them

They talk about us

Telling lies

Well that’s no surprise

Can you see them

See right through them

They have no shield

No secrets to reveal

It doesn’t matter what they say

In the jealous games people play

Our lips are sealed

Careless talk

Through paper walls

We can’t stop them

Only laugh at them

Spreading rumors

So far from true

Dragged up from the underworld

Just like some precious pearl

It doesn’t matter what they say

In the jealous games people play

Our lips are sealed

Pay no mind to what they say

It doesn’t matter anyway

Our lips are sealed

There’s a weapon

We must use

In our defense

Silence

When you look at them

Look right through them

That’s when they’ll disappear

That’s when you’ll be feared

Hush, my darling

Don’t you cry

Quiet, angel

Forget their lies
