Everybody calls me the quiet one

You can see, but you can't hear me

Everybody calls me the quiet one

You can try, but you can't get near me



I ain't never ever had the gift of the gab

But I can talk with my eyes

Words fail me

But you won't nail me

My eyes can tell you lies



Still waters run deep

So be careful I don't drown you

You've got nothing to hear

I've got nothing to say

Sticks and stones may break your bones

But names can never down you

It only takes two words to blow you away



Everybody calls me the quiet one

But you just don't understand

You can't listen, you won't hear me

with your head stuck in the sand

I ain't never had time for words that don't rhyme

My head is in a cloud

I ain't quiet, everybody else is too loud



Still waters run deep

So be careful I don't drown you

You've got nothing to hear

I've got nothing to say

Sticks and stones may break your bones

But names can never down you

It only takes two words to blow you away
