GOSSIP
if i don’t divulge my story
you’ll have no story to tell
i’ll also steal your glory
you’ll have no gossip to sell
your flapping loose lips
will suddenly be pursed
so used to sinking ships
and so vindictively versed
you won’t inflame my thoughts
nor shut down my emotion
to slander me you ought
what gives you the notion
when you feel like singing
you should keep yourself quiet
there’s no use in mud flinging
that only starts a verbal riot
you feed on each other
like an all you can eat buffet
anyone a target even your mother
stab her in the back touche’
you’ll have no story to tell
i’ll also steal your glory
you’ll have no gossip to sell
your flapping loose lips
will suddenly be pursed
so used to sinking ships
and so vindictively versed
you won’t inflame my thoughts
nor shut down my emotion
to slander me you ought
what gives you the notion
when you feel like singing
you should keep yourself quiet
there’s no use in mud flinging
that only starts a verbal riot
you feed on each other
like an all you can eat buffet
anyone a target even your mother
stab her in the back touche’
