Can you hear them?
They talk about us
Telling lies
That's no suprise
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
My lips are sealed
Careless talk
Through paper walls
We can't stop them
Only laugh at them
Spreading rumours
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
My lips are sealed
Pay no mind to what they say
It doesn't matter anyway
My lips are sealed
Early in the morning
In the middle of the night
They said two dead boys got up to fight
Back to back, they faced each other
Drew their swords and shot each other
The deaf policeman heard the noise
Said he came and shot those two dead boys
If you don't believe this lie is true
Go ask the blind man
He saw it too.
Hush, my baby
Don't you cry
Quiet, angel
Forget their lies
There's a weapon
That we must use
In our defence:
Silence
When you look at them
Look right through them
That's when they'll disappear
That's when we will be feared
It doesn't matter what they say
In the jealous games people play
My lips are sealed
Pay no mind to what they say
It doesn't matter anyway
My lips are sealed
