Everybody's Talking

"Hush" He's lookin' in the mirror checkin' out his hair Puffin' on his cologne He ain't shaved since Tuesday but tonight Every little whisker's gone He's goin' out with the perfect wife But she ain't his own Hush - can't talk about it Hush - dance all around it Everybody's doin' it, old and young Don't breathe a word, cat's got your tongue Hush Mama makes breakfast, packs the kids' lunch And sends them on their way She cleans up the kitchen, makes all the beds Then loads up her TV tray Ah, but that ain't coffee in her coffee cup That gets her through the day Hush - can't talk about it Hush - dance all around it Everybody's doin' it, old and young Don't breathe a word, cat's got your tongue Hush Pretending it ain't happening won't make it disappear You can sweep it under the carpet, look the other way But it's still here You can hear 'em screamin', yellin' through the walls Just another normal night You hear glass breakin' and baby's cryin' But you say it's gonna be alright You just turn up the volume on your radio And turn down the light Hush - can't talk about it Hush - dance all around it Everybody's doin' it, old and young Don't breathe a word, cat's got your tongue Hush Hush - can't talk about it Hush - dance all around it Everybody's doin' it, old and young Don't breathe a word, cat's got your tongue Hush Hush - can't talk about it Hush - dance all around it Everybody's doin' it, old and young Don't breathe a word, cat's got your tongue Hush
