Shut Your Mouth - Garbage, Broadway Project

Welcome, we love you, we hate you, we love you

We want you, we need you, we wish we were like you

They say you’re a saint, you’re a whore, you’re a sinner

That he had you, he made you, he can’t live without you

Would you confess if we asked that you nurture

The urge to declare that it’s time

To settle down with a man of your own

You want a baby, a family, a piece of security?

Shut your mouth

Try not to panic

Just shut your mouth

If you can do it

Shut your mouth

Try not to panic

Just shut your mouth

If you can do it

Just shut your mouth

What’s your opinion of the dire situation?

In our land here, our guest here, of course you’ll be nice here

How do you feel about God and religion?

Are you good people?

Bad people?

Guess-it-doesn't-matter people

Your place, my place, make her bring that famous face

You got some?

You want some?

You wanna let me get you some?

We know your music but of course we’d never buy it

It’s too fake, man — right, man!

We don’t give a fucking damn!

Shut your mouth

Try not to panic

Just shut your mouth

If you can do it

Shut your mouth

Try not to panic

Just shut your mouth

If you can do it

I hear you saying, «Play it, smart girl

Win the game, love!

Give 'em what they want

What they want to see, and you could be a big star

You could go far

Make a landmark

What have you been reading, you smart girl?

Win the game, love!

Give’em what they want

What they want to see, and you could be a big star

You could go far

Make a landmark

Make a shitload!»

And the world spins by with everybody moaning

Pissing, bitching and everyone is shitting

On their friends, on their love, on their oaths, on their honor

On their graves, out their mouths, and their words say nothing

Shut your mouth

Try not to panic

Just shut your mouth

If you can do it

Shut your mouth

Try not to panic

Just shut your mouth

If you can do it

Just shut your mouth

I waited to say something

Oh, shut your mouth

I wanted to say something

Just shut your mouth

I waited to say something

Oh, shut your mouth

I wanted to be something

Just shut your mouth
