hush

Lyrics

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
