lyrics

Oh I can hear you talking
Keep on talking
You've got nothing to say unless you're shooting off your mouth about me anyway
Keep the laughs coming
Keep your mouth running
I'll do my best to always give you something else you can talk about

Oh I can hear the whispers from your sisters in the hen house
And they just keep on talking
Never stop to get the story straight
Keep the dirt flying
Keep your tears crying
I'll keep on trying for a little bit of truth in your lying mouth

Empty minds with empty words
Can't wait to tell you what they heard on the assembly maligned
Your life is ripe for their discussion
Talking loud and saying nothing with no peace in mind
But your talk talk talk is cheap
Your talk talk talk is cheap
Your talk talk talk is cheap
So cheap

The blindness in your outrage is outrageous
A contagion of anger so misplaced
There's nothing sacred in this modern age
Keep it all easy
Keep it light and breezy
So all the simple people can be proud of all their silly conjecturing

The choir's got a preacher facing in
Here comes the sermon again
Recite the lines you learned by rote and gloat amongst your friends
Keep your jaws swinging
Keep your hands wringing
I'll keep on living with a reason while you're greasing the squeaky wheel

Empty minds with empty words
Can't wait to tell you what they heard on the assembly maligned
Your life is ripe for their discussion
Talking loud and saying nothing with no peace in mind
But your talk talk talk is cheap
Your talk talk talk is cheap
Your talk talk talk is cheap
So cheap

Empty minds with empty words
Can't wait to tell you what they heard on the assembly maligned
Your life is ripe for their discussion
Talking loud and saying nothing with no peace in mind
But your talk talk talk is cheap
Your talk talk talk is cheap
Your talk talk talk is cheap
So cheap

Your talk talk talk is cheap
Your talk talk talk is cheap
Your talk talk talk is cheap
So cheap
Cheap
