Well, fool me once, said shame on you
I've got a thing to say or two
I've been diggin' in the dirt for days I've made
A humble home for bones to lay
So, if you've got something to say
Why don't you take it to the grave
Well listen closely, but mostly don't speak
I've toiled and I've tumbled
Told tales to the meek
Well I've crumbled and I've crawled
On the dark end of the street
and I swore a solemn oath to both the devils and the saints
So if you've got something to say
Why don't you say it with some grace?
Well, clean out your wounds and bandage what bleeds
and ramble and gamble and scramble if you please
they say the road to hell is paved with plenty of these
but then they get on their knees and go pray to a priest
So, if you've got something to say
I guess someone is always listening
Well forget what they told ya
Come over, come over
Red rover, red rover
I've got something to show ya
and if you look closely at me
I think you might see just what I mean
Well the loosest of lips have been known to sink ships
A snake with two faces is a back biting bitch
So casually, tongues do run free
but the squeaky wheel is gonna get the grease
So if you've got something to say
Why don't you say it to my face?
