Bottle Rocket - Babble On Lyrics

What was that crack I made? Swung a hammer wrapped in suede? Like a lick from a lunatic beatnick Knock you senseless as I Babble On I strike between the lines Hissing words in serpentine Backbiter with an appetite I coil and I rattle, Then I Babble On Every time I add a line, I wish I could subtract. Too late to take it back Conversations in veneer Sand 'em down, They're insincere Off guard, Better check the cue card Got ghostwriters for my Babble On So I communicate Intending to humiliate On attack with a cardiac comeback You take shelter, I take Babble On Every time I add a line, I wish I could subtract. Too late to take it back And if talk is cheap The price is high When I let another arrow fly Better to be seen and never heard Then to Babble On with every word What was that crack I made? File a claim with medicaid All my rumors spread like tumors Tale and tattle, Rant and rattle on Ugly as the sun it is Sold out to the slander biz Gotta keep the tongue in line Even fools seem wiser off the Babble On Every time I add a line, I wish I could subtract. Too late to take it back And if talk is cheap The price is high When I let another arrow fly Better to be seen and never heard Then to Babble On with every word And if talk is cheap Then why the thrill in an Idle tongue that fires at will? Better to be silent and be strong Then to let my babble Babble On Then to let my babble Babble On Then to Babble On James 12:18 Proverbs 12:18 Proverbs 17:28 Bottle Rocket Lyrics Babble On Lyrics
